Description: Larry Wall's Practical Extraction and Report Language
An interpreted scripting language, known among some as "Unix's Swiss
Army Chainsaw".
.
Perl is optimised for scanning arbitrary text files and system
administration. It has built-in extended regular expression matching
and replacement, a data-flow mechanism to improve security with
setuid scripts and is extensible via modules that can interface to C
libraries.
