Getting started with Perl

[Bruno Carpentieri]

Hi all.

I would like to learn the Perl language, and I have
the following two very basic questions:

1) what is the best Perl distribution for Windows XP
to get started (I will work on a laptop) ? Is the
Active Perl from Activestate reliable ?

2) Can anyone suggest me any online documentation,
most preferably into one single PS or PDF file ?

Many thanks for any information.

1) Activestate has been reliable for me for years, just get the latest
version off of their website.

2) perldoc.com has all the man pages online


good luck with it.
