I think perl would have been a better choice. Getting java working has been a royal pain for me. Perl is an excellent prototyping language. Intermezzo development was done largely in perl for example.
Of course its easy for me to say - I know perl well but don't know java. Anyhow I think all platforms would have been well serviced by perl and in addition perl has good support for networking _and_ performance is reasonable. Has anyone ever benchmarked perl vs java on a range of platforms? Matt -- On Wednesday 13 February 2002 06:23 pm, you wrote: > Just raising my hand in favor of java dev.
