Sadly but true most perl programmers I met only script in perl...

Once you know Perl, why should you want to script in other languages. The number of times I've started to write a Bash script or a DOS bat file, only to finish it in Perl... Portability, flexibility, power and expressability count in scripts as well!	[reply]
