in reply to Other languages besides perl
Other languages I program in:
shell: I love its quoting style - it's better than Perl.
awk: (Typically in combination with shell).
Shell and awk are present on all Unix systems (and I
don't give a rats ass about non-Unix systems), Perl
isn't.
C: For speed, low memory usuage, and portability. It doesn't
require Perl to be present.
SQL: Hated by many, adored by the few who understand the
power of set algebra.
LPC: It's simple, and MUDs are fun.
If I had more time, I would learn, or learn better: Python, REBOL, Haskell, Eiffel, Ada.
