hmm, asking too much?
all right, so i've got my copy of the camel book in my backpack, but I'm just learning and I was talking to my friend, and I came up with something I would love to be able to do (and I know perl might not be the best language for this, but it was the first thing that popped into my head):
confdntl98: you know what would be rad? if someone put together a perl script to sort through pricewatch and find the lowest amount it would cost for a list of itemsTony: lol
Tony: Be my guest =P
confdntl98: like, if I say I want a mobo, cpu, memory, NIC, and video card... type "pricescan mobo cpu nic video" and it would tell me how much each costs and how much total
Tony: Yeah
confdntl98: even cooler would be pricescan mobo(usb) cpu(athalon) nic(100) video(32meg) and have it look for mobo's with usb in the descriptionconfdntl98: or nic's with 100 in the desc, etc.
*bambi eyes* I know it's kinda big, but if you even know of anything that might be like it I could peek my eyes at, I would be very very happy ^_^
