I don't use Perl neither. Currently I'm on a diet of PHP and ASP (eeek), perhaps with a sprinkling of C, 6502 assembler or Microsoft Basic.

Oops, guess it's my fault for diving into the more modern stuff! :-(

Ah that's better! C is still reasonibly scarey language - if
only we did fun apps programming at school in SmallC!

Fortunately TP isn't like that & rountines can be added -
obviously though TP offers a quite a few more routines (bit
like BASIC), though offers just a little bit more C based
stuff as well! :-D
At least my website offers some routines which demonstrate
some of the smaller things which aren't usually demonstrated
in Turbo Pascal 3! :-D
