Programming / scripting languages in tech-writing

[Bruce Byfield <bbyfield -at- axionet -dot- com>]

Over the weekend, I was fiddling around with Perl. I don't know how far 
I'll get (not far, if past performance is anything to go on), but my 
explorations made me curious:


Does anybody else on the list use a programming or scripting language in 
their work? If so, which one? And what sort of tasks do you use them for?
