They are not obviously inefficient and confusing. Many of us, especially the Perl geeks, find them relatively clear when well written. It's a mini language, and like any language it can be clear or opaque in its meaning depending on

i was all interested until i saw PHP. That's not a dis on PHP. It's just that PHP is so not the right tool for the job for a command line client. Sure, it appears you can coerce it to do that but... it's designed for embedd

I don't think that's really the point. The point is that the unix command line has some serious shortcomings in its fundamental design. By extension he may be suggesting that maybe we should get off our asses and do something abou
