I picked up this book (Handbook of Programming Languages, Vol. III - Little Languages and Tools) about 3 years ago at a clearance sale at Books-A-Million for about $5-$10 ($50 cover). I dug it out this week b/c it has a chapter on Python, which I am giving another shot after being bullied by Larry, et. al. about my PERL affinity at this weekend's presentation.
If you find a cheap copy, you should check it out. It's a compilation of chapters on various 'little languages,' basically enough to get you started on each. Included are (among others): -Pic -EQN -A chapter on domain specific languages -Unix formatting languages (troff) -awk -sed -SQL -Tcl/Tk -Perl -Python -Little music languages (i.e. midi) Pretty unix-centric. Anyhoo, if anyone wants to look it over, let me know and I can bring it by a meeting (I'll probably be at tomorrow's). Jason __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
