I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

I can't get CPAN shell again
Hello guys, I'm a newbie here and need some help, so thanks in advanced. I went through the whole installing and configure process of CPAN in order to, later install some modules for building a baseball data base. It seemed to me that something wasn't quite right with all the question/answer process during the configuration process of CPAN (how can i expect to learn something if I don't break it...right?) but I kept going. Even though I wasn't able to install any of the modules I need, I still could use and see the "CPAN prompt" in my Terminal. Now, the problem is I cannot get into the "CPAN prompt" using the "cpan<" command nor the "perl -MCPAN -e "shell" (at least to repeat the answer/question configuration process once again), what I got instead of the "cpan<" shell is this: Terminal does not support AddHistory. CPAN.pm panic: Lockfile /Users/Ed/.cpan/.lock reports other host ed and other process 402. Cannot proceed. So, basically I'm stuck and I need some help, because I don't know how to fixed this. I have google it but not nothing worth it. I'm using a Powerbook G4 with Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) Peace out,
