Unfortunately, few Perl programmers are aware that a native version of Perl
is available for use on both M68K and PPC Macs, under both the Finder and
MPW. So, I am sending out this modest plea:
Take a look at MacPerl!
The MacPerl Pages (
http://www.ptf.com/macperl/) contain summary information
on MacPerl, scads of relevant links, and draft chapters of Prime Time Free-
ware's upcoming book on MacPerl.
MacPerl is true freeware; both the source code and the binary executables
are freely redistributable. So, you really have no excuse for delaying:
if you have a Mac, pick up a copy of MacPerl and try it!
Yours, Rich Morin
President, PTF
