I must conclude that I wasn't clear :-).
I am not saying Perl or AWK are better, only that it takes less time to
learn how to use them (in a basic way), since most programs know that
basics of regular expressions from school.
I must admit that I haven't used S4, just read the book and tried some
simple examples.
You may be right that we should use this group to intorduce new people to
these languages.
I suppose that a small regualr posting on S4 can be the right thing to do.
