Hi All!

   Thought I'd post a couple of example scripts of using Perl to access
databases;  they're from something I've been working on, to load the contents 
of a nodelist file into a (mysql) database table...

   It seems to be mostly working, doing an import of both a fidonet and an STN
(Sysop's TechNet) nodelist with no errors except for those two I mentioned in 
my previous post (subj: "chunk errors?"), so I figured I'd post in here about 
it & use a couple of scripts from it as examples...   A snapshot of what I'm
currently useing and/or testing for this, is available at 
http://rocasa.org/pub/ftn/pl/nl2sqlv1.zip.

   I'm going to have two versions of this;  version 1.x is one that uses
standard Perl, while version 2.x will be useing FTN Perl modules;   I wanted to
get something working as standalone, before I tackled figureing out how to do 
Perl Modules...<g>
