Yah, I just noticed that the eperl stuff is obsolete.
I was hoping to prototype in Perl, and find out how good your arguments were
after I had a prototype done. It looks like I can't even do that.
I could do it in C, that is my "native" language. However, it does seem an
inappropriate language for the task.
My lisp experience is limited to hacking .emacs files, so working in scheme
would involve learning a new language. Not a big deal after you've learned as
many as I have, but it's still another obstacle.
