Thanks for your reply.

I think given my current (Perl) skillset. It would indeed require the "human interaction" you describe. Much of it seems to be alot of (s)print(f) sort of stuff. And much of the syntax even closely mimics Perl. So it really doesn't seem to me, a, "quantum leap", or anything. But, as I stated above; it'll probably take some accomplished Perl RE skills.

Thanks again, for taking the time to respond.
