Python combines a lot of the features one might want from
TCL/TK and Perl with object orientation and a very
nice Java implementation (JPython). Cross-platfore
like Perl and TCL/TK too, but probably more so
from Win32 perspective.
Choose your weapons. Python and TCL/TK are both
larger than Perl
As has been pointed out, it really depends on the context of what you want
to do. Choose the right tool for the job, and don't get stuck in the
"when all you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail" syndrome.
Here's my take on the various languages (having pretty much done work in

I'd like to add three things to Ted's comments. With respect to speed, if

languages). If you are writing something to be called through CGI, perl's

Oh, Lord, what, you WANT a flame war?
Look, here's my bottom line: With Power Comes Complexity. Perl is simpler
