Or ASP or ColdFusion, for that matter. A lot of people only learned
Perl to do CGIs. Outside the Unix environment Perl is "that language
in which CGIs are written". Now that there are "better" (in the sense
that they're more amenable to click-and-drool programming) options for
CGI in Windows, Perl is losing popularity.
