IMHO, Perl is by far the best tool for most things because of the wealth of stuff in CPAN and the huge number of examples and howtos for doing bizarre things. Python is great if you are starting a large project that will benefit from object orientation or if you're interfacing with something that's already Python (e.g., I'm learning Python by doing CGI-type addons to Zope). > Note too, I'm a non-programming since Fortran IV (what4) so ease of > learning is helpful. > > > James -- Jack Coates Monkeynoodle: A Scientific Venture...
