I have nothing against Python, other than I don't know it, and as
yet, I've not seen a reason to learn yet another scripting language.
Perl was specifically designed with text munging in mind, and since
that's what I spend most of my life as a sysadmin doing, I'm pretty
good at it.

If you don't want a Perl solution, that's fine. I'm simply offering
to help with something that finally seems to match my programming
capabilities. I take no offense if decline the offer, since that
just means I get sit around here and do nothing some more ;)

   but I'm really actively waiting for all my problems to go away.
