Hi. This is the _Perl_ beginners list.
Python advocacy is very much off-topic. If you'd like to stay and talk
about Perl programming, please do. If you'd like to advocate for
Python, please take that conversation some where else.

Things you need to look out for are file locations, adding the shebang to

specified as \\ instead of / and any Win32 specific modules. Other than
that, test the script and see if it breaks...
