I wrote some stuff in Perl as that was what was available on the web server. It was not that bad to write code. You start with the inmost thing. Then surround with the next layer of processing. Then surround that with the next. Etc. Very powerful. I had very intense routines in a single line of code. Nice.

Now come back a couple of months later and need to make one little change. :w00t: Trying to uncoil those lines to remember what they did. It's not so easy to read what you wrote. :crazy:

Don't get me wrong here. Perl is fine. Many people use it and find it easy. I did not. It's the fault of me and not Perl.
