Well, if you want to see all the reasons why Perl may not be a
suitable replacement for GDL, please see consult the list
archives. We had a rather toasty flamewar over this (and quite a
few other things) around the middle of November.
If you are thinking about writing a Perl API for Xconq, then go
for it. I can think of several other people on this list who would
probably appreciate it, even though Python seemed to be a more
popular choice (though it was not always clear whether it was
being considered as an API for the Xconq engine, AI's, or a GDL
replacement).
