Interesting. I view it as a way to civilize Windows, in addition to
many other uses.

It seems to me that Perl's decline came about when people started
using web frameworks based in other languages. Web frameworks separate
a programmer from the gnarly low-level aspects of web programming and
make it easy set up a web application.

To rectify that, it's worth spending some time promoting this guy:
