in reply to Perl vs. Javascript

Any time you want to run something from the command-line rather than a Web-browser you're almost always better off going for Perl rather than for JavaScript ;)

Sorry for stating the obvious but I get the impression that some people still don't understand this! I'm not targetting any monk, just some of the AMs that pass by.
