For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))

hi there,

I have to write a set of codes in perl using shell scripts. the code that i have to insert in the file is

perl -pe 'print q{ [% IF template.name.match('\.(css|js|txt)');debug("Passing page through as text: $template.name"); content; ELSE; debug("Applying HTML page layout wrappers to $template.name\n"); content WRAPPER site/html + site/layout; END;-%]} if $.==4' -i Topo/root/lib/site/wrapper.pm

the code works on getting the name wrapped.

I have been gettin a syntax error in the line
[% IF template.name.match('\.(css|js|txt)');
syntax error near unecpected token.

Is that any thing to do with \. in the code.?

thanks in advance.

The ' within the code is being taken as the shell string terminator.

I would suggest you save the Perl program in a file and run it from the file rather than trying to write an entire program on one command line
