Full Discussion: C and Perl in unix
The Lounge What is on Your Mind? C and Perl in unix Post 302443711 by fpmurphy on Tuesday 10th of August 2010 12:37:49 AM

There is a future for both Perl and C in my opinion. C tends to be used for operating system development, embedded code and more, C++ for business application development, and Perl for large scale scripting. There is no clear answer; it depends on what you personally want to do.

HTMLCLEAN(1p)						User Contributed Perl Documentation					     HTMLCLEAN(1p)

NAME
htmlclean - a small script to clean up existing HTML SYNOPSIS
htmlclean [-v] [-V] file1 [file2 file3 ...] DESCRIPTION
This program provides a command-line interface to the HTML::Clean module, which can help you to provide more compatible, smaller HTML files at the expense of reducing the human readability of the HTML code. In some cases you may be able to reduce the size of your HTML by up to 50%! The HTML::Clean library provides a number of features that improve your HTML for browsing and serving: htmlclean passes each file given on the command line to the library and writes out the new HTML according to the specified options. The default is to create a backup file and replace the file with cleaned HTML. Removing whitespace, Comments and other useless or redundant constructs Insuring that font tags work across multiple operating systems For full details see the documentations for HTML::Clean itself. OPTIONS
"-V" Print the version of the program. "-v" Verbose mode. Print out the original and final file sizes, plus the compression percent. For example: 5261 4065 22% /tmp/development-es.html 5258 4061 22% /tmp/development-fr.html 4651 3683 20% /tmp/development.html SEE ALSO
For the library, see HTML::Clean AUTHOR
