JC - "That's the MS compatible re-implementation of Perl, yes?" No, every one of the languages come from a 3rd party. You should have read the articles. The .NET platform beats anything else in existence. Don't be quick to judge when you don't have the details. I stand fully behind Mozek's opinions. Since you're criticizing without even having details, your opinion is obviously clouded by bias.

well the windows perl from activestate seems to run everything i've thrown at it from the o'reilly books. does the new .net engine support standard perl such as this or is it some bastardized, msft-specific version of perl? if msft has left all of the old perl in place but added additional commands, i don't see the problem, as long as it remains quick. if they're deleting standard perl commands and putting in their own... well my first thought is that that would suck. andy
