The web page by John Norstad is very good. If anyone hasn't gone to the site Paul posted, I would heartily suggest doing so. :-) Matthias, John wrote that Apple is trying to decide what scripting language should be used under the OpenStep/Unix side of the Mac. Should we all send e-mail to Apple suggesting MacPerl/Perl? I would think it would be a good idea. I'd hate to wind up with Tcl/Tk!!!! Or something else which takes a lot of convoluted work to achieve what, in Perl, is a simple command. :-) ***** Want to unsubscribe from this list? ***** Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to mac-perl-request@iis.ee.ethz.ch
