Xref: utzoo comp.lang.perl:132 alt.sources.d:422 Path: utzoo!attcan!uunet!mcsun!hp4nl!mhres!jv From: jv@mh.nl (Johan Vromans) Newsgroups: comp.lang.perl,alt.sources.d Subject: posting the perl reference guide Message-ID: Date: 13 Jan 90 03:38:15 GMT Sender: jv@mhres.mh.nl Organization: Multihouse Gouda, the Netherlands Lines: 35 The Perl Reference "Card" and Guide are typeset quick reference guides to Larry Wall's Perl program. The Reference Card consists of 5 pages of 3-column text, and contains a concise description of all perl 3.0 statements, functions, variables and lots of other useful information. The Reference Guide contains the same information as the Card, but it is formatted in 8 pages of 2-column text. It should be printed double-sided, stapled in the middle, folded, and cut to size to have a 16-page 3.5 x 8" booklet. The Reference Card and Guides are distributed in PostScript format, since their sources are maintained in a DeskTop Publishing System, and not suitable for other processing. The Card should be printable on all industry-standard PostScript printers, on US Letter (8.5 x 11") and A4 (21 x 29.7 cm) paper formats. The Guide comes in two formats: one for US Letter and one for A4 paper format. A new revision [3.0.8] is almost finished now. Changes with regard to the previos version [3.0.4] are typos and minor adjustments. The previous version has been made available via mail servers and anon FTP only. This time I consider posting it. That would result in 8 shar-files of 25K each, with which it is possible to build all three PostScript files (150K each). Any objections? Better ideas? Shall I post it to comp.lang.perl? alt.sources? comp.sources.misc? comp.lang.postscript :-) ?
