I generally write simple things in bash shells, and save more complex stuff for Perl these days. Trying to move more actively to Julia and others for this though. Perl6 looks like it extends on good things in Perl5, but, of course, in the process, breaks many things I am used to in Perl5. The nice aspect is that there are many good tools, and quite a few mediocre ones to solve problems. Pick your tool sets and be productive with them, taking care to learn others over time.
