Event Handling?

[zm5]

Could someone give me a link to a tutorial on event handling in perl?
I have not been able to find anything, it seems what I always find
when searching for event handling in perl is signal handling. Are
these two things one in the same?

Thanks for your help

Describe what you mean by "event handling". Are you talking about
responding to keyboard or mouse events? Please read:
perldoc -q mouse

If that's not what you mean, tell us what you mean.

Posting an "anyone?" followup is rude. If your question didn't get
any responses, it's because you asked a poor question. Ask a better
one.

Event handling where?

Perl-Tk programs, Curses::UI programs, and Perl-Gtk programs all use
different event mechanisms.

Search for modules with "event" in their names; one of them may lead you
to a tutorial:

cpan> m /event/

When I googled "perl event handling" and followed the 1st 5 links,
I found none of them were related to signal handling.

How are you searching?



Signal handling is event handling, but event handling is not (only)
signal handling.

Do you mean like in POE or Tk or something?

If you are looking for gui type programs, Tk, Gtk2, etc.

If you are looking for console mode, try Glib or POE.

I like GLib, it's the base lib of the Gtk2 system, but Glib
itself dosn't need X.
