| JavaWoman | fileparse() seems somewhat equivalent to splitpath in File::Spec |
| merlyn | perhaps. I don't rememeber using either one. at least not at this late hour. :) |
| JavaWoman | indeed, it says: If your concern is just parsing paths it is safer to use the File::Spec manpage's splitpath() and splitdir() methods. File::Basename dosesn't seem compatible on VMS |
| merlyn | that's a concern for you? you have access to a VMS system? :) |
| action | strlen got a vax in his closet, this better work on it |
| strlen | got a vax in his closet, this better work on it |
| JavaWoman | maybe not, but it's easier not to have to worry about it :) |
| merlyn | I tend to not worry about unlikely things do you worry about getting hit by asteroids too |
| JavaWoman | I'm writing a bot; then I need a home for it, so I don't knw what it's going to run no |
| strlen | my asteroid prevention tool runs as a perl script on my vax |
| JavaWoman | lol |
| merlyn | I will bet the rent money that nobody is going to write a bot for VMS. :) |
| strlen | if it can't find [SYS.SYSTEM] it assumes there's an asteroid |
| merlyn | what kind of bot? |
| strlen | so it will launch nukes |
| merlyn | IRC? IF so, base it on Bot::BasicBot please |
| JavaWoman | little helper in our #wikka channel using POE::Component::IRC |
| merlyn | yeah, cool ok - sleep is needed. & zz |
| JavaWoman | used Ofnibot as an initial framework (ripping out most to _get_ a framework ;) you can join #wikka and say hello to WikkToddler ;) |

| ew73 | modperl makes the baby jesus cry. Or it could be apache. They're both fucking nightmares. |
| JavaWoman | apache never gave me nightmares... |
| ew73 | I could be unsmart. :( |
| JavaWoman | ew73, probably not ;) |
| ew73 | JavaWoman: I have a feeling it's some random undocumented apache directive that everyone "knows" should be there. |
| JavaWoman | quite possible or Apache needs to be compiled with support for modperl? |
| Jmax- | it's a module |
| ew73 | It's Catalyst; the first part works, but later parts Don't. |
| JavaWoman | well, Apache needs to know about it if it's to use it |
| ew73 | Though, I have coerced the error logs into telling me there's a permission denied for creating the session! All I need to know now is where the fuck it's trying to create the session directory. |
