Whenever I do an exercise from one of the
books that assume a unix environment, I skip
the code that gets user input. If the code
is written like this:
my @names = <STDIN>;
I change it to:
my @names = ( qw/ joe bob jack / );
Then I type (or copy) the rest of the
code from the example. Windows is not a
command-line driven environment. Stop trying
to adapt it to one. You can always learn
more about the command-line later. For now,
I would recommend skipping the input part of
the example programs and concentrate on the
concept being taught.
