I just thought it seemed interesting at the time :). That clicked after I wrote it, the whole idea of "wait, then what's interpreting the code, definately not perl." But, it still seemed pretty neat to have certain tools written in perl, which I guess could be found in many other places, and I could write for myself. But, I think the bigger picture is, if I am using Windows with ActivePerl, and I want to play around with UNIX tools and programs, it is a nice alternative to Cygwin, which I used, and loved, before I chose to switch to Linux. | [reply] |
