Long-time perl user and fan (17 years?). My summary of Perl: With great power comes great responsibility. I have seen no other language (with the exception of TECO, which dates me) that can be more impenetrable in 1 line, or more powerful in 1 line. Wrote an entire application with GUI including hacking HPUX Logical Volume Manager *and* Digital Multi-Level Secure filesystems in Perl.
