I write programs for fun, just about always in perl,
but I wanted to use everything but perl for that project.
I learnt a lot about Makefiles, sed, gawk,
m4, and even some stuff ex, and quite a lot
about zsh scripting.
I prefer to write html in vim anyway, mixed with Template Toolkit
directives. ;)
I do have too many projects though...
