Perl tutorial for Python programmer

[Patrick Useldinger]

Hi All,
I have some experience with C, Pascal, COBOL and lately Python, and am
quite confident with all of these. I would like to learn Perl as well,
and I am looking for a decent tutorial which should:
- concentrate on the most recent "stable" version of Perl (5.8.0, I
believe)
- go straight to the point without explaining programming or OO concepts
- have a fair amount of examples for "offline" learing.
Which one would you recommend?
Thanks,
-PU

Programming Perl for the first two points and Perl Cook Book for the last.
