The CPLP Game:

Q: Where can I play it?
 

As above, no details are yet available, please come back soon for details.


Q: Can I submit a bug report?
 

Yes, the great people at SourceForge have given this project a bug tracking system, that is your first port of call for letting us know about any bugs/problems.

CodeBase / HTML / SSI Code:
Q: Can I download the source code?
 

Yes, you can download the Codebase, this was written under the Open Source ethic. Please consider this code to be under a GPL licence. In order to download the code you will need to use our CVS (Concurrent Version System) tree.

The CPLP SourceForge.net CVS repository can be checked out through anonymous (pserver) CVS with the following instruction set. The module you wish to check out must be specified as the modulename. When prompted for a password for anonymous, simply press the Enter key.

Note » Updates from within the module's directory do not need the -d parameter.

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.cplproject.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/cplproject login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.cplproject.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/cplproject co modulename

Q: What do you mean by "use strict, use warnings"?
 

{grin} It means that if you use some of the Perl tools that are available you will be able to code in the confidence that if you make a mistake your code will actually tell you where a mistake is and give references as to why. All coding will have the following as a header (generic OS references aside).

    #!/usr/bin/perl -w
    use strict;
The -w flag after the shebang is the warnings switch.
Q: Can I re-use portions of your HTML coding?
 

Of course you can use the source HTML code, "no problem-o". However, please don't copy any written material without prior permission from the appropriate author/editor on this site.


Q: What's this .css file, can I see it, re-use it?
 

The CSS file is a Cascading Style Sheet document that controls the behaviour of defined HTML elements. Yes, you can re-use the code therein, but no warranty is given or implied by its use, in other words if it destroys anything, we are not at fault...

It's available for viewing by clicking this link.
