Jason,
Perl is AWESOME!
Under OS 9 using MacPerl, you can include Perl directly in your AS. From
OS X, you can call a Perl script with one of the shell osax's.
For any kind of task that rquires reading/parsing large file, Perl's
speed is great.
Since you already know how to program ('script') using AS, you have a
good foundation. Now a lot will be a matter of syntax

Hello,
My management just suggested that I PERL.
I don't know anything about PERL.
Any thoughts to share knowing that I primarily use AppleScript.
