You could write your CF templates and use the CF Administrator to run
scheduled tasks to carry them out, or run them using a browser directly.
Or, getting even more baroque, use Perl to make a HTTP request

I am wondering what it takes to run CF to perform certain
tasks that are not not web related... as one would use PERL.
I've started learning PERL a few months ago as a tool to do
some local data cleansing, etc... but I still miss the
facilities CF provides for database and file
Okay, I'm convinced! Any suggestions then for a general-purpose language
that I could run on my desktop for text/file processing and database
connectivity? I like PERL, but I am still at the level where I always have
to grab a book to look up syntax, as its syntax doesn't render itself to

If performance is not an issue, but developer maintenance is, I have been
using a combination of the two.
We manage the files/directories in CF, pass the filespec and parameters to
perl using CFHTTP, do all the string manipulation in Perl, then pass back
the results as XML which CF parses and
go with perl. You should always -- use strict; and -Tw flags.
As far as rote memorization forget it. After a while you'll have some code
snippets and you'll fly through scripts. Comprehension not Memorization.
