| (...) No, it's using a homebrew. I probably should look into Text::Query though, if it's loaded with callbacks and/or easy member-function overloading. What I threw together isn't very smart about word roots, and it isn't very fast either. But it (...) (25 years ago, 29-Jun-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
| | | | | Re: Tan color again?
|
| (...) Well, whatever the case, I just used that module for a CGI script at work. I *really* like it. Espcially, in that you can construct query strings approaching the usefulness of boolean algebra, but with a less wordy syntax. I noticed (1) that (...)

| (...) Boot up time issues aren't unique to Windows. I was always annoyed at how long OS/2 took to boot up at work.
