Perl + C++ = <DM>

#define P "Perl"
#define C "C++"

world/New()
    . = ..()
    name = "<dm> Tags in [P]"
    status = "It Works!"

// The Members site is written in perl, while the forum is written in C++.  Members didn't have a <dm> tag because rewriting the syntax highlighter in perl would have been a major waste of time.

    var/msg = {"Now that we have guild forums, we wanted to tie
the forums ([C]) more closely to the guild pages ([P]).  It was a
<a href="http://www.perl.com/doc/manual/html/pod/perlxs.html">pain in the
[ascii2text(64)][ascii2text(36)][ascii2text(36)]</a>, but [P] now has access
to all BYOND Hub [C] functionality!  Stay tuned for the guild-related fruits of
that labor.  &lt;DM&gt; is just one bonus; I'm sure we'll think of others."}

Crispy	Yay! Nice work. =) The "mad scientists" tagline has never seemed more appropriate... "Perl and C++, united in flesh and in spirit, joined as one! They called me fools, they said it couldn't be done! But I'll show them! "Igor! Bring me my remote procedure caller!" "Yeth, marthter..."

DivineO'peanut	pain in the ascii values?

Smoko	Awesomeness. Divine: I hope you're joking, but it's more family friendly writing it like that.

XxDohxX	Yay. :-) Good job.

Danial.Beta	Sweet! I kept telling myself that I was going to create a izer program to automatically apply the correct tags to DM for the blog pages(Seeing as we already have the CSS). I never got around to it though...

Bandock	Very nice.

Hell Ramen	Hahaha, I laughed at the ascii2text bit.

Wizkidd0123	Nice =)

BigBoiD	Would that run in DM? tries

Danial.Beta	Although I have not tested it, I am fairly sure it will work in DM. Everything looks in order.

Hiead	Really, now, what was the point to the `world/New()` bit? You could have just defined the variables under the /world type. :P `world {name = "` `Tags in [P]"; status = "It Works!"}</tt> Granted, I only put it in that format do to the lack of <dm> tags in comments. You could do the newlines and indent on your own time. ;)`
