Try this on your Linux box!
sudo perl -MAudio::Beep -e 'beep(21 + 9998, 3000) while 1'
Pretty annoying huh? :D
Now for something completely different:
use Audio::Beep;
my $beeper = Audio::Beep->new();
my $music = "g' f bes' c8 f d4 c8 f d4 bes c g f2";
$beeper->play( $music );
Audio::Beep is really a great Perl module! :)
Since the article about Makefile::Parallel was accepted at EuroPar, I never touched the software again.
Fortunately, it is been working since then without too many problems. However, there are a bunch of new features that we thought we could include in the distribution. So lately I have been spending some time doing small hackathons adding the features and correcting some bugs.
You can expect a new release on CPAN very soon :-)
Today Alberto gave me a new copy of Embedding Perl in HTML with Mason book. Since I will work with Mason someday, I decided to learn it during my (short) free time.
Maybe I’ll write a review :)

I was accepted invited as a collaborator on a Portuguese blog about Perl (and friends). The good news is that it is written in Portuguese. The bad news is that it is written in Portuguese.
You are invited to visit, comment, and save the RSS field of the new (wordpress powered) perl-hackers blog. Have fun :)
