in reply to Perl for the Masses?

Well, some of the things I've seen Perl used for here at work are (in alphabetical order):
  • Automated data fetching
  • Data munging
  • Filtering
  • Flow management and scheduling
  • Format translation
  • Prototyping
  • Viewer backends
  • Viewers (ASCII, CGI, Perl/Tk based)
All of which is Real Work.

We also have programs running in C and in C++, of course.
