Ken Janusz, CPIM ----- Original Message ----- To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: Monday, December 08, 2003 10:24 AM Well I might have disputed your "almost" dispute until I learned that Perl can run on my Sony PlayStation2 via Linux. (see: http://linux.oreillynet.com/pub/a/linux/2002/03/21/linuxps2.html.) OT: Anyone on the list ever run PlayStation on Linux? -----Original Message----- Cary Millsap Sent: Monday, December 08, 2003 9:00 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L The only thing I think I disagree with is the word "almost."

SQL*Plus or Shell is very limited in terms of functionalities. Besides, Perl is portable language. Perl code runs on almost any platforms. ----- Original Message ----- To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: Sunday, December 07, 2003 22:34 I've read a lot about PERL on this list. And, I am wondering what can you do with PERL that you cannot do with SQL*Plus, PL/SQL or Unix shell scripts? Any information will be greatly appreciated.
