Que Publishing's forthcoming "Perl 5 by Example" (due in the stores in
a couple of weeks) is available online at:

http://www.planet.net/pmedined

This book is not related to the existing "Perl by Example" book. The
new book has all-new content and is solely concerned with Perl 5.

Although the book is oriented towards initially learning Perl, even
advanced programmers might learn something from Part III, "Advanced
Perl" and Part IV, "Perl and the Internet."

Below is a table of contents. I have to admit that the chapter on
regular expressions is my personal favorite. Towards the end of the
chapter is a list of scenarios and how you'd solve them with regular
expressions.

Please let me know if you have any comments on the book. I'm committed
to enhancing the online version. In fact, an errata page is already
posted thanks to some comments by Randal Schwartz.
