I'll pitch in: I have (but don't necessarily use):
DOS 7 (with default command line enhancements it's actually useful) Kixtart Auto-Hotkey PHP NetLogo Javascript VB_ Lotus 1-2-3 macro language Q-Basic I have actually used netlogo for certain simple text-massaging problems--not the best, but easy and handy and I don't know perl. I vote for javascript... it seems that your script is not going to be doing anything that should bump up against a cross-platform issue... It's just text input, processing, text-output... what could be simpler? For any of the tricky (e.g. display, event, css box model) platform quirty stuff, use a framework like jQuery. ~~James ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org
