Perl + Curses Tutorial?
 
I am trying to write a (relatively) simple program using Curses with Perl. Basically, I will have a text file with two columns: computer name and status. I want to create a display that I can keep up constantly that will have a different box for each computer in the list. If the computer is up, the box should be green. If is it down, box is red. That's about it. My problem is that I am trying to find a tutorial or some documentation that focuses on using Curses from within Perl. I am not very comfortable using C, so Perl is the best choice for me. The only documents that I have come across on Google are the basic Curses documentation and very brief mentions of the fact that it can be used from Perl. Can anybody point me to examples, docs, tutorials, etc. that might help me out?

Thanks

Basically, go to search.cpan.org and enter 'curses' in the search box. Here's one result: http://search.cpan.org/~marcus/Curse...b/Curses/UI.pm
