Do you have a shortcut or two you use all the time when you're writing Perl code? I don't mean how you condense your code from 12 lines to 3 characters, but things like the Vim or Emacs incantations you can't live without, or Firefox shortcuts so you can just type "cpan Module::Name" in the URL bar to jump to search.cpan.org results. Or, perhaps something written in Perl that's a little off-the-wall but makes your life easier or more fun, like your favorite Perl GUI widget, or a Perl-controlled alarm clock?
If you have an idea like this, or if you just want to debate the rules of the CPAN drinking game, drop us a note at alias+perl_hacks_contrib@wgz.org (this will send your message to the list and subscribe you). The best ideas will get added to a book called Perl Hacks.

There was a bug that chromatic fixed soon after my journal post. That may have been causing your problem. But, lots of other posts made it through to the list without any problems, even before the fix. Let me know if you try again and it still doesn't work.Re:Mailing list working?
