Uhm sorry I guess I used the wrong words for this, but probably you understand what I meant anyway. (You can read the source-code :)
I prefer perl for almost everything, I use it for 99% of whatever I do and I love it. I introduced it to the company I work at, so some people here know perl now and we do lots in perl.
I don't think it's necessary to mention the reasons, not to you, because you know them like I do. Starts at the OO-Model goes along performance and ends at dependency-stuff. Ever coded a web-browser in perl? Sure it's possible, but will be it fast/stable etc? Ever coded anything else where performance is an issue like stock-charting software or any grafic-stuff? Yea it's possible with perl but will it be really good?
I'm not sure why I have to say this here, because everyone knows that already: Choose the right tool for your needs.
