For a complete version of Tom Christiansen's vi configuration file,

=head2 Where can I get perl-mode for emacs?
The Curses module from CPAN provides a dynamically loadable object
module interface to a curses library. A small demo can be found at the
-directory http://www.perl.com/CPAN/authors/Tom_Christiansen/scripts/rep;
+directory http://www.cpan.org/authors/Tom_Christiansen/scripts/rep;
this program repeats a command and updates the screen as needed, rendering
B<rep ps axu> similar to B<top>.
Tk is a completely Perl-based, object-oriented interface to the Tk toolkit
that doesn't force you to use Tcl just to get at Tk. Sx is an interface
to the Athena Widget set. Both are available from CPAN. See the
-directory http://www.perl.com/CPAN/modules/by-category/08_User_Interfaces/

Invaluable for Perl/Tk programming are the Perl/Tk FAQ at
http://w4.lns.cornell.edu/%7Epvhp/ptk/ptkTOC.html , the Perl/Tk Reference
Guide available at
-http://www.perl.com/CPAN-local/authors/Stephen_O_Lidie/ , and the

=head2 How can I make my Perl program run faster?
The best way to do this is to come up with a better algorithm. This
and on the way you write your CGI programs, so investigate them with
care.

=head2 Where can I learn about object-oriented Perl programming?
A good place to start is L<perltoot>, and you can use L<perlobj>,
-L<perlboot>, and L<perlbot> for reference. Perltoot didn't come out
-until the 5.004 release; you can get a copy (in pod, html, or
-postscript) from http://www.perl.com/CPAN/doc/FMTEYEWTK/ .
+L<perlboot>, L<perltoot>, L<perltooc>, and L<perlbot> for reference.
+(If you are using really old Perl, you may not have all of these,
+try http://www.perldoc.com/ , but consider upgrading your perl.)
