---------------------------------------- Perl January 28th, 2018 ---------------------------------------- I guess it's about time I bite the bullet and learn perl. Michael Conrad posted a link to his blog [0] about his absolutely incredible car project where he's designed a custom dash that's actually a little linux machine. He's done just about everything in perl 5 and opened my eyes to some of its power. I've always thought of perl as a write-only (because the syntax is so dumb) glue language. Since I'm so comfortable with shell scripting, it seemed like an unnecessary step to take. It seems that some of that syntax has gotten better, and the way it interacts with c is pretty cool. Availablity on a huge range of systems is a plus. I found a few decent quickstart guides. I'll give this a go. (HTM) [0] My Delorean Runs Perl
