This is a periodic posting about the availability of the Perl
Reference Guide.

The current version of the Reference Guide is 5.001.0. It is based on
Perl 5.001. The kit includes pre-formatted PostScript and LaTeX
sources. 
For more information: http://www.xs4all.nl/~jvromans/perlref.html . 

The Guide is available from the following sources:

 * All sites of the CPAN (Comprehensive Perl Archive Network), for example:

   - ftp://ftp.cis.ufl.edu/pub/perl/CPAN/doc/refguide/perlref-5.001.0.tar.gz 
   - ftp://ftp.cs.ruu.nl/pub/PERL/CPAN/doc/refguide/perlref-5.001.0.tar.gz 

   Visit http://www.perl.com for a list of CPAN sites.

 * All mirrors of the Free Software Foundation, for example:

   - ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/perlref-5.001.0.tar.gz
   - ftp://ftp.nl.net/pub/gnu/perlref-5.001.0.tar.gz

   FTP archives all over the world mirror the FSF, check your nearby
   archive sites!!

 * Via e-mail:

   - Send the following message to [email-masked]

       begin
       path [email-masked] (SUBSTITUTE *YOUR* ADDRESS)
       send PERL/CPAN/doc/refguide/perlref-5.001.0.tar.gz
       end

   - Send the following message to [email-masked]

       begin
       path [email-masked] (SUBSTITUTE *YOUR* ADDRESS)
       send pub/gnu/perlref-5.001.0.tar.gz
       end

     The path command can be deleted if we receive a valid 'from' address
     in your message. If this is the first time you use ons of the
     above mail servers, issue the request:

       send HELP
