[hokky]

Hi guys,

I used to learn perl but not advance and it's 6 yrs ago,
Now I wanna learn it back.

Atm, I usually dealing with shell scripting, awk, sed in unix

Any idea what book ?
Much appreciated,

Thx

Programming perl 3rd edition if you really need a book. If you can deal with a small reference book and a CD then I would get the perl cd bookshelf. Cheaper and contains a ton of books (Programming perl, perl cookbook, perl in a nutshell, advanced perl and a few more I think) and they are searchable. Plus it's cheap!
