Perl OS is a program written in the Perl programming language combined with the Perl module Tk.

Perl OS was created to make an easy interface to run Perl/Tk programs. It was also created to be an easy working environment complete with a text editor, paint program, and more.

The program comes with several programs, along with a utility to add many more which can be found on the Internet.

From the outside, Perl OS looks like a simple operating system. But inside, it is a powerful system for working with Perl and Tk.

For some problems, particularly in the presentation layer, thinking of the solution as a webpage that can run perl is more natural than thinking of it as a perl script that can print a webpage.

It's been done before, but this module is simple. The source code is compact: one file and less than 2k of code. Simply put: if you can do it in Perl, you can do it in Markup:Perl, only without all the print statements, heredocs and quotation marks.

Requirements:

• Perl

Perl Chat is a project that consists of a client and a server, both written in perl.

The goal of this project is to create a chat server that can be used on smaller networks such as a college campus or a business network.

Both the client and the server are written in Perl, and the client uses the Tk module to generate its GUI.

Installation:

First of all you need a working version of Perl. Preferably 5.6 but 5.005X should also work fine. For versions of Perl Chat < 0.1.0 you will need to compile Perl with Threads. (Keep in mind that Threads are still experimental) I designed this program with Perl 5.6.0 which can be found HERE.

You will need to read the installation instructions to compile it with Threads. I advise anyone who is doing this to install this new version of perl into /usr/local/ so as to not overwrite your old perl. Then by changing the first line of the script you can toggle between the different installs of perl.

Perl/Linux is a Linux distribution where ALL programs are written in perl.

Many of the programs came from Perl Power Tools (PPT). Other programs came from Jay Komineks Perl/Linux page.

Other programs, I wrote or enhanced, including: plHttpd (web server), edit (aced based), vi (enhanced aced), mount (enhanced unSlider version), xargs, login, passwd, getty, halt, init, ifconfig, route

The only compiled code in this Perl/Linux system is: Linux Kernel (not currently built with this project), perl, and uClibc.
