Substitute perl for C and bash for awk.
Taylor's Laws of Programming
* Never write it in C if you can do it in `awk'.
* Never do it in `awk' if `sed' can handle it.
* Never use `sed' when `tr' can do the job.
* Never invoke `tr' when `cat' is sufficient.
* Avoid using `cat' whenever possible.
And like all clever phrases, take with a grain of salt. :)
