Author Good *nix language
Viktor Lofgren

2004-07-16, 3:58 pm

I have been programming *nix applications for a few years
now and grown quite proficient at it. So i decided, heh,
why not give assembly a go, so i did, and now I'm quite
proficient at that as well. So, the thing is that i'm looking
for some new language to learn, preferably with a good
connection to the fundamental *nix functionality (like C has).

I'd be glad to receive suggestions :-)

Have you already had a look at Perl? Can be fun (if you like that
kind of things) and will even work on other systems than UNIX
(but a lot of things show its origins).

Perl and Python are both worth taking a look at.

Bash, Ksh, Perl, Python, D, Ruby, C++, XUL, Objective C, XSLT?
