About a year ago i was perusing a bookstore and noticed all the Java books that processed XML. I thought to myself "what a complete waste ... using Java to parse XML!" Sure, you may point me to some lightening fast parser that does a wonderful job of parsing the XML ... but once the parsing is done, what is left? Java. No thanks. Not when i can choose. Perl is the better choice for parsing XML because what you are left with is USEFUL! Be it an anonymous data structure via XML::Simple, be it a SAX thingy via XML::SAX::Machines, or be it twig via XML::Twig ... what you have is cool, fun, and what you will do is Get Stuff Done™ jeffa L-LL-L--L-LL-L--L-LL-L-- -R--R-RR-R--R-RR-R--R-RR B--B--B--B--B--B--B--B-- H---H---H---H---H---H--- (the triplet paradiddle with high-hat)	[reply]
