| guest1234 | but what about inbuilt routines |
| Woosta | why? |
| guest1234 | just curious i know symbolic refs are a *bad* idea.. but i just want to know if its possible so...is it possible? |
| Woosta | I'm not sure .. but you can access them via CORE:: .. so possibly .. |
| guest1234 | right, but i want to access through symbolic refs if possible i was trying it out, and i could refer my own subs but i couldnt get it to refer an API sub |
| somian | hmmm/me does a little VNC'ing |
| ccoffey | quick easy question, but i've been up for a day :) how would i remove white space (one space) at the start of a string? |

| perlbot | For regular expressions see perldoc perlretut perlrequick perlreref perlre http://xrl.us/ozni |
| sili | s/ // s/^ // |
| ccoffey | cool, thanks |
| guest1234 | how about someone answering my question :( |
| sili | guest1234: sub { CORE::foo($_[0]) } |
| guest1234 | but is that flexible..i.e. can i also refer a user-defined sub with that? |
| thrig | wouldn't &CORE::foo; avoid the need to mess with @_? |
| guest1234 | if i have CORE:: as a prefix...can i refer user-defined subs? |
| sili | yes |
| guest1234 | ok thanks! |
| woggle | thrig: CORE::foo is not a subroutine, sorry. thrig: (Or, rather, it's not a subroutine corresponding to the core function.) |
| thrig | guest1234: see also http://search.cpan.org/src/SIMONFLK/Test-MockModule-0.05/lib/Test/MockModule.pm |
| shorten | thrig's url is at http://xrl.us/u5eb |
| guest1234 | right..will do |

| merlyn | returns from the hotel bar |
| sili | 73gb is tiny for a server what the hell good is it? |
| ccoffey | hmmm, sorry to be a complete noob, but what would the syntax be for removing that space from @response[0] say? |
| thrig | you mean $response[0] ? |
| ccoffey | aye, i do :) |
| sili | perlbot: re |
| perlbot | For regular expressions see perldoc perlretut perlrequick perlreref perlre http://xrl.us/ozni |
| thrig | it involves =~ |
| sili | and s/// |
| thrig | and $response[0] ! |
