Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How much bash to learn compared with Perl? Post 302581297 by bartus11 on Monday 12th of December 2011 04:32:34 PM

If you want to learn Perl, then go straight to Perl. It is quite big area to comprehend, so the sooner you start the better Smilie. Basic shell knowledge is useful, but not required to master Perl. Also learning too many things in a one shot might not be so good, as you might forget half of the things, and confuse the other half you didn't forget. I would focus on Perl if it is really what you want to script with Smilie.

Wx::Perl::DataWalker(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				 Wx::Perl::DataWalker(3pm)

NAME
Wx::Perl::DataWalker - Perl extension for blah blah blah SYNOPSIS
# alternatively, see the dataWalker.pl script in this distribution! use Wx::Perl::DataWalker; my $data_to_browse = { # complex data structure. # Good test: \%:: }; package MyWalkerDialog; our @ISA = qw(Wx::App); sub OnInit { my $self = shift; my $frame = Wx::Perl::DataWalker->new( {data => $data_to_browse}, undef, -1, "dataWalker", ); $self->SetTopWindow($frame); $frame->Show(1); $frame->SetSize(500,500); return 1; } package main; my $app = MyWalkerDialog->new(); $app->MainLoop(); DESCRIPTION
"Wx::Perl::DataWalker" implements a "Wx::Frame" subclass that shows a relatively simple Perl data structure browser. After opening such a frame and supplying it with a reference to an essentially arbitrary data structure, you can visually browse it by double-clicking references. So far, there is no tree view but only a display of the current level of the data structure. You can traverse back up the structure with a back button. Optionally, "Wx::Perl::DataWalker" displays the (approximate!) size of the data structure using "Devel::Size". SEE ALSO
