Hello, all!
Is there any serious usage of Perl for Windows?
Here, in Moscow, I know quite few programmers who used to develop using Perl (under UNIX). And I doubt they still do.
As for me, I find Perl quite handy and useful. And what they've done in PDK is amazing I guess. But I use it on my own, "for fun". And still I can't see the place of Perl among the other languages/platforms. Nobody here can I guess.
So, let us start our little survey, shall we? ;) First question:
Why do YOU use Perl for Windows?
Thanks in advance, Artem A. Avetisyan.
It's free. It's flexible. It sucks far less than vbscript.
Granted, I generally don't use it for windows-only gui-based applications - I find VB easier to use for this sort of thing. But for system administration, or anything that needs to be cross-platform, perl is the way to go for me.
