I think you'll find, if you can see round that shield of anonymity, that most postings to Cool Uses For Perl are of general interest - in that, the poster got the title spot on - esoteric: understood or liked by only a small number of people

I know nothing about FOX (but wonder whether it might have something to do with 20th C Fox & all that) and assert less about its being evil - my point was that the OP, doesn't, IMO, class as a 'Cool Use For Perl'.

Wow, you mastered one programming language. ... hmmm, I suspect I've forgotten more languages than you've mastered - perl is merely the latest weapon I'm attempting to add to my arsenal.

As for mastering perl ... had you been around here and paying attention for long enough, you should, by now, have realised that very few achieve the dizzy heights of mastering such a complex and because of that, fun language.

A user level that continues to overstate my experience :-))
