Too bad that I have other commitments tomorrow. I use a lot of the
Unix tools that have been ported to OS/2 under EMX. I use AWK quite
often along with SED. I mainly use 4OS2 as my command interpreter, but
I also use the BASH shell when I trying to do a build of Unix software.
I am also use TCL/Tk and their shells on occasion.
As for Perl.... All of the special characters remind me of TECO. I am
still learning, but quite often reading Perl seems like looking at
transmission line noise.
