Hi PP, in my opinion, Perl is (still) very, very useful. You need _strong_ shell scripting stills to write _efficient_ portable shell scripts (scripts that will run on Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, AIX and eventually Cygwin). Perl is more powerful than most commonly used shells and is also available on Windows. Perl is available on virtually every Unix system. Un saluto Dimitre -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
