I enjoyed remembering the old days and hearing similar experiences of the "technology breakthroughs" of the 80's.
Back to my OP, got it, thank you. I thought Python, but appreciate the confirmation and the suggestion of Perl. I wanted to avoid effort down the wrong path. For example, back in the day, I would hate to have mastered pascal when everyone/every platform was using C. Agree with searching for and borrowing the code snipits.
