F.8. An Extended Example
Hopefully, you now have a general overview of the main features of Embperl. For more information—for example, to learn more about the many options you have in configuring Embperl or for instructions on how to configure Apache or mod_perl —please take a look at the Embperl web site at http://perl.apache.org/embperl/. Embperl is actively supported and development is going on all of the time. The web site will always contain information on the newest features.
Example 6.2 shows one last example of how you can use Embperl. It's a rewritten version of the hangman game of Chapter 5. Instead of creating its own session management, as in Chapter 5, this hangman game uses the Embperl built-in capabilities.
