RE: DBA tools on NT - PERL
I'm not responding to any single message here but a few general comments about perl. First of all I don't care what language you are talking about if you have never used it you probably will see something that you don't understand if someone shows you a program. Therefore, not understanding Jared's small program doesn't mean that perl is hard. After all if you have used || to mean or, seeing it used in SQL queries or PL/SQL to mean concatenation is going to cause some confusion until you have some idea of its meaning in this context. Although I have not had an opportunity to do much with perl recently, I was one who got people looking at perl when we moved off a mainframe and onto UNIX about ten years ago. Why? Because of what I was able to do with it. I was able to come up with things in a short period of time that might or might not be needed again. Some of these quick fixes became more than that - correcting a bad translation of a couple of characters when reading those IMB standard label tapes into an ASCII file was easy for perl and important to the eventual users of the file. Even then I didn't consider myself a perl expert - it was just very easy to pick up and extremely useful. I think it might be relevent to mention how I heard about perl in the first place. It was not from a techie but rather from a librarian. At that point I was more of the exception than the rule in a position of dealing with large machine readable datasets that our faculty and graduate students use for secondary research - in a lot of schools at that time the data was looked at as being infomation that belonged in the library but not much had been done about library provisions for using the data. I have a technical background so handling the data was not a problem but standards for cataloging it were. It was in this context that I heard about perl.
