Pearl, What is it?

[Russell J Fulton;ccc032u]

I noticed the two scripts posted in response to a request for reaper programs
were Pearl scripts. We are relatively new to UNIX an I have not come across
Pearl before. Could some kind soul please send me a brief description of
Pearl, and information on where to get it. (Or a pointer to where I can get
the information.)

It looks like a powerful tool for doing admin work!

Thanks,Russell.
