As I recall, the perl version in that book had a fair bit of room fo improvement. It was missing a number of idiomatic perl usages; ones that were used in the awk version of the same program and mesntioned as deficiencies in perl.

  Maybe, now that I've purchased it, I'll see if I can improve the code significantly.
