Title: Message
Hi all,
 
Currently, we are using vbscript & vb components (.dll's) to perform some tasks (mentioned below), but the processes are breaking as the number of files to work with get larger.
 
I'm wondering if anyone can point me to some FAQ's or technical journals/info that would compare PERL vs VB for things such as (on a windows box):
 
~File moving between directories.
~Finding patterns/strings in files.
~Writing 1 files' contents into another file (so as to "concat" certain files together into one).
~FTP'ing of files (as big as 50mb)
~Mapping & unmapping directories across a network (to move files from one server's directory to another server's directory).
 
I'm not looking for forum's to query...as I will need some kind of "industry" documentation/tests to present to my managers/peers for review if I am going to convince them that well written PERL solutions would be better than trying to clean up the current (sporadically working) VB scripts.
Speed in processing is important, but not having a script get hung up during the processing is most important.
 
Thanks,
Gary
