Hi all,
[ please Cc: me in replies, I'm not subscribed to this list ]
While read developpers handbook, I noticed that the tools-intro
part still references Perl as being part of the base system. I
corrected this is the attached patch, and moved it just after the
ports collection mention. I dare to add Python and Ruby as well
since they are both popular script langage nowadays.
Note that the patch is a little bit fat regarding of what it's
supposed to do, because I needed to redo line wrapping.
Regards,
