I was going to say...if your running a 32 bit OS...you have 5 gigs of RAM just eating up power...can't wait for the day when the gaming companies finally get into the 64 bit world and I can go ahead with putting a new gaming system together...

I do remember back when I used memory managers to eke out the last few kb of RAM for my DOS stuff. And I remember my first computer, with 2kb of ram. Smilie

Those were fun days...himem.sys was a godsend...mapping to the upper memory blocks to free up enough base memory just so Wolfenstein would run...I managed to get 610k free...had to force some base processes into the upper memory region to do it... Smilie

dos scripting.

I quit "hardcore" gaming a few years back...trying to keep a job while getting only 3 or 4 hours of sleep a night (1 or 2 on weekends) isn't something middle aged geeks can handle for long...good thing for coffee and dew.

ppi::token::quotelike

PPI::Token::QuoteLike(3)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				  PPI::Token::QuoteLike(3)

NAME

       PPI::Token::QuoteLike - Quote-like operator abstract base class

INHERITANCE

	 PPI::Token::QuoteLike
	 isa PPI::Token
	     isa PPI::Element

DESCRIPTION

       The "PPI::Token::QuoteLike" class is never instantiated, and simply provides a common abstract base class for the five quote-like operator
       classes. In PPI, a "quote-like" is the set of quote-like things that exclude the string quotes and regular expressions.

       The subclasses of "PPI::Token::QuoteLike" are:

       qw{} - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Words
       `` - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Backtick
       qx{} - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Command
       qr// - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Regexp
       <FOO> - PPI::Token::QuoteLike::Readline

       The names are hopefully obvious enough not to have to explain what each class is. See their pages for more details.

       You may note that the backtick and command quote-like are treated separately, even though they do the same thing. This is intentional, as
       the inherit from and are processed by two different parts of the PPI's quote engine.
