I took Bryan Pinkertons advice and started to use Anjuta for a perl script that I'm working on. I found that Anjuta isn't passing the command line parameters to the script. You can see a screenshot of my example and my bug submission.
On the road again this weekend. This time ...

Today is the last day of school. That makes a certain someone really happy.
Speaking of Reagan, she called me on my jab at Slade. I'd take a bullet for him too. Happy birthday man. You're what, 23?
