90% of the stuff I write is in Perl. The other 10% is Tcl. I design semiconductors and every week I have to write a couple of small scripts to process text files or reports and that is always in Perl. Everyone at work knows Perl. Those that don't learn it. The EDA tools mostly use Tcl as the internal scripting language so I have to use that. I have no problem with new languages but I find regex's in other languages to be too verbose.
