Learning Perl
Since blosxom relies on perl so much, I figured that it would be beneficial to read up on it. Moreover, perl is one of the P-Languages (Perl, Python, PHP, ....) that is good to learn since they differ pretty much from the C-Languages. Thus, to help in this endeavor, I have looked upon the wisdom of Learning Perl by O'Reilly. I have the book Perl In a Nutshell too in my online collection but opinions on it are not as supportive. I do not think that Perl is a hard language to learn; it might be hard to master, though.
What I hope to accomplish with Perl is to be able to dissect and understand everything about blosxom.cgi; not that I do not understand it now, but I really want to understand it.
