Thanks, I got that!

But what draws my attention in these articles is that I never see perl working together with other big ones like awk and bash (, etc.) in LINUX how-tos.

These articles show something from the real LINUX distributions building job experience. There, perl has a significant place and combines well with all the other 'biggies' (just like Mc Giver's swiss-knife). This guy is writing about that point of view. But normally, people just mention perl as a tool or all the others without perl. And it is nice and fair to see them working as a group, don't you think so?

Wherever I lay my KNOPPIX disk, a new FREE LINUX nation could be established.
