Would you mind explaining this to someone who does not know anything about
Perl?

for MUMPS GT.M programmers.
Good one.
Syntactically, in Perl (at least as of 5.8), I don't think you can have
array references like A(X,Y,Z). Actually, you can, but the resulting
value will be a list! Of course, you can use the arrow operator (->), but
I suspect most MUMPS programmers would find it ugly.
That being said, a DBI::MUMPS driver is an interesting idea.

Or "Where's the perl DBI::MUMPS" driver?
