Forget shell scripts!
YAPC Chicago, IL
For typical system administration tasks, it's
tempting to whip up a quick shell script. Resist
this temptation. Use Perl instead. For everything.
If your scripts are created with reuse in mind,
you'll end up with much better code that's easy to
maintain and can be plugged in anywhere -- even in
places you haven't imagined in the first place.
This talk shows how to make your Perl scripts
almost as short as shell scripts, while giving you
reusability, structuring and logging for free.
