This FAQ is in the public domain. If you use it, however, please ensure that you give credit to the original authors.

Note that all code examples in this FAQ have been indented to be easy to read. If you cut-and-paste an example to a real Perl script, remember to outdent the code again so that the farthest-left column of code is in the first column. This can be crucial!
