What is PERL??

People in this forum do not understand that.. Perhaps trying another forum may be of use. ask Dr Google!

If you cannot use Perl expertise for anything else, there's tons of legacy web applications in Perl that still need supporting.

I use Perl frequently when I need a quick one-time access to data - for example extracting data from spreadsheets, databases or web pages.

It's also the language I'm most likely to use when I need to do something more powerful than a straight shell script but less complex than a standalone Java application - especially if it involves regular expression matching.

A little hint: Find a web site that's based on the UBB forum software - it's all Perl. Maintaining and enhancing such a site is truely a tough Perl guy's job

Only Perl wont take you anywhere .. I suggest you check job postings to identify what technologies Perl is usually coupled with and try to master them as well , that might help
