my name is Silvio Ospina\, I was reading the information in man ___ but I do not find elemental information. I try to run perl in suse 8.1 in /usr/bin/perl -w and the next line is white\, I am looking for a simple exercice for compilar and look the result of the program. For instans I write print "Hello word" but How can I do for execute the elemental program? How I can know that the perl program is working?
Could you recomend me an excellent book for mysql/perl whith examples because I need to make a database for a library.
Thanks a lot

"man perl" should give you an outline of the perl documentation available. It strongly urges those new to perl to start by reading through "man perlintro" which should answer your question about running perl. If the documentation there is inadequate\, please let us know where it needs to be improved.
Reading through "man perl" should also have shown you a reference to "man perlbook"\, which has some information about perl books. More can be found abount halfway through "man perlfaq2" in the section titled "Perl Books". None about mysql though. The web page referred to is quite out of date\, and shouldn't be spoken of by the FAQ in such positive terms (patch follows).

I should also have mentioned the very new http://books.perl.org/
Yitzchak- if you put together a new patch with the new URLs (and maybe a restructuring or something) I can apply it to the FAQ source.

This section appears to have been largely rewritten since this patch was written. Thanks though :)
