perl/PERL

[Tom Christiansen]

>From the keyboard of hutch at gothamcity.jsc.nasa.gov (Mark Hutchison):
:I need a thumbnail sketch of the utility "perl."  Understand it is a something
:of a superset of awk and other utilities.  Specifically, what does it do that
:the other utilities will not?  Where can I get it?  How much $?  What versions of
:UNIX does it operate with/on?

I've sent Mark a few of my long canned articles about perl, including the FAQ.
Anyone else who'd like these need but ask.
