is there some way of doing a "notdefined" (i appreciate there is no such thing )
...
While there is no such operator as notdefined, the Logical Not - not defined would work for your case. That's because not unary operator is the equivalent of the ! operator(except for the precedence).
Can anyone tell me if the copy command in PERL has the same functionality as in KSH shell in UNIX or does it actually move the file ??

If I use 2 system commands in a script, will one finish before the next one starts? or will it start the first and the second at the same time?
i.e.
system("ps | grep rminer");

This tests the existence of the test_sub subroutine without actually calling it.
If, though, I replace test_sub with a package method...

Hi
I am new to PERL and need to add a line to the perl script which issues a system call if certain pattern exists in the file, for example:

Hello everyone,
We have got a Server say Testserver with AIX 6.1 running on it.
We want to create user defined authorization for syslogd, ntpd and named . We don't want to use pre-defined authorization (aix.network.daemon). Is it possible to create an independent authorization for commands?... (1 Reply)

ppmtosixel
ppmtosixel(1) General Commands Manual ppmtosixel(1)NAME
ppmtosixel - convert a portable pixmap into DEC sixel format
SYNOPSIS
ppmtosixel [-raw] [-margin] [ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Produces sixel commands (SIX) as output. The output is formatted for color printing, e.g. for a DEC
LJ250 color inkjet printer.
If RGB values from the PPM file do not have maxval=100, the RGB values are rescaled. A printer control header and a color assignment table
begin the SIX file. Image data is written in a compressed format by default. A printer control footer ends the image file.
OPTIONS -raw If specified, each pixel will be explicitly described in the image file. If -raw is not specified, output will default to com-
pressed format in which identical adjacent pixels are replaced by "repeat pixel" commands. A raw file is often an order of magni-
tude larger than a compressed file and prints much slower.
-margin
If -margin is not specified, the image will be start at the left margin (of the window, paper, or whatever). If -margin is speci-
fied, a 1.5 inch left margin will offset the image.
PRINTING
Generally, sixel files must reach the printer unfiltered. Use the lpr -x option or cat filename > /dev/tty0?.
BUGS
Upon rescaling, truncation of the least significant bits of RGB values may result in poor color conversion. If the original PPM maxval was
greater than 100, rescaling also reduces the image depth. While the actual RGB values from the ppm file are more or less retained, the
color palette of the LJ250 may not match the colors on your screen. This seems to be a printer limitation.
