> Python, Ruby, and Perl Oh, the irony! If the FBI released a lineup of suspects in the case of who killed Unix, those three names would be right at the top, with Perl as the ringleader* .

Even plan 9 can build Unix software using APE, the ANSI Posix Environment. Apple just doesn't feel like paying distro package maintainer. * See #8: https://interviews.slashdot.org/story/04/10/18/1153211/rob-pike-responds https://interviews.slashdot.org/story/04/10/18/1153211/rob-p...
