O'REILLY RELEASES QUICK DESKTOP REFERENCE FOR PERL 5

February 16, 1996 -- Sebastopol, CA--O'Reilly & Associates has released
"Perl 5 Desktop Reference," an easy-to-use reference guide to the Perl
programming language. This compact book provides quick, well-organized
access to the vast array of features in Perl, version 5.

Perl--a language for easily manipulating text, files, and processes--has
established itself as the UNIX programming tool of choice since its
creation nearly a decade ago. In the past two years, World Wide Web
programmers have discovered Perl, and it is now becoming their programming
tool of choice, as well.

For only $6.95, the"Perl 5 Desktop Reference" provides a complete overview
of the language, from variables to input and output, from flow control to
regular expressions, from functions to document formats--all packed into a
convenient pocket reference.

The Perl 5 Desktop Reference is the perfect companion to O'Reilly's
"Learning Perl," a carefully paced tutorial course by Randal L. Schwartz,
and "Programming Perl," the complete, authoritative reference work
co-authored by Perl developer Larry Wall and Randal Schwartz.

O'Reilly has posted Chapter 1 of "Learning Perl" on their new Perl page at
http://www.ora.com/info/perl/.
