[MacPerl] JavaScript & MacPerl/Perl



I am just writing to say I'm doing a lot of coding in
JavaScript lately.  It is a very interesting language but
it also has some major drawbacks.  However, I've found that
MacPerl and/or Perl in general helps greatly with the
coding of JavaScript.  This is because what I do is to make
extensive use of the:

	$theReply = <<END_JAVASCRIPT;
blah, blah, blah....
END_JAVASCRIPT

construct.  So my question is:

Has any else used this method of setting things up to code
for other languages?  My first thought (of course) is
AppleScript.  But has anyone set up something in
MacPerl/Perl to do maybe Think C code or MPW
C/Pascal/etc... code?  Just a thought.  After all, there
are a lot of repititious procedures in other languages
which would fall into a Perl text processing area quite
easily.  IMO that is.  :-)
