I am curious, why do you say it is a Windows only solution? Mono and GnuDot are very well along in development and very stable. They run on almost as many platforms as Perl.
And while I do know Perl and have written many many applications in it, I am not really fond of the syntax, the debugger, or the available IDEs for it :) Plus, while it is extremely efficient in handling string and text data, it is not very memory friendly if you know what I mean :) Shawn -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Beau E.

Well good luck. Have you any idea how many Unix/Linux servers are out there? I don't see your adversion to Perl which has everthing in place, via CPAN, to accomplish all your needs: portable, avaiable modules for almost any need, rapid development, ... Do you know perl? Are you interested in supporting the non-Windows world?
