        _Learning Perl_ is the Llama, _Programming Perl_ is the Camel.
Get your spitting beasts of burden straight. :)

        The former is an introductory text (but it's still aimed more
towards those with some programming experience (with C or sh/awk/sed)
than the total non-programmer), the latter is more of a reference.
