Re: Need help using Gedcom.pm

Hi Jutta

I patched your ged data to make it validate, and wrote a little script 
to get you going. See:

o https://savage.net.au/misc/jutta.ged

o https://savage.net.au/misc/jutta.log

o https://savage.net.au/misc/jutta.sample (Rename to jutta.pl)

My web hosting company will not let me upload files with names like:

o jutta.pl

o jutta.pl.txt
