- I'm porting perl to a new platform (AmigaDOS 2.04) and am having some
- trouble getting it to pass all of the regression tests (in the t/
- directory of the standard distribution.)...
-
- Since I'm a perl novice (I have to port it before I can learn it :^), I
- don't necessarily understand what all the tests are trying to do. I do
- have the camel book as a reference, so I can figure it out eventually..
- but, I was hoping there might be some documentation somewhere on what
- each test is basically trying to do. I don't need a line by
- line analysis, just an overview of what is being tested, etc.
-
- Any help would be much appreciated.
