in reply to I first became interested in Perl because...

I had to do some text processing and really didn't want to use shell.

It just grew from there and the friendly sort of documentation (Learning Perl). This book is a brilliant way to get programming fast with "real" tasks in an aproachable manner.

It is also not OO so simple code can be hacked very fast without needing to create objects and interfaces.
