- biomcgary 4y agoIf you work on Linux or MacOS, you can generally count on the interpreter being present. Even minimal installs of Linux tend to include Perl. Python might be as ubiquitous, but Ruby certainly isn't.
- pjmlp 4y agoIt might, but you better be sure it is the right version.
- AnimalMuppet 4y agoIf he's mainly using it for one-liners, how version dependent can it be? (I suppose it may depend on how long a line he's willing to type...)
- pjmlp 4y agoDepends on what is being called on that line. https://perldoc.perl.org/perl#History https://perldoc.perl.org/perl#History
