what? ick. Common Lisp is _very_ nice to work with thank you. that
Tcl is the ultimate masochist language even beyond befunge on the
other hand is true.

python is fair enough.

I was locked in a few choices, I know perl very well, I know python
quite well. I know lisp enough to love it.
the question is maintenance. and I wonder if I write perl so much
better than python that it would be a good idea. then again, I'm not
that happy producing code in either.
and right now, I don't have time. :(
