My latest exploration of alternative languages takes me here... Why o why is Perl not easier to embed ? *sigh* in Java, at least.
It will do in the future?

Tim Bray seems
intent on making dynamic languages play better on the JVM. So you might yet see better Perl integration.

JPerl?

Does Perl even lend itself to this kind of integration? Probably not. I think that Python, Tcl and Ruby are more orderly internally for that kind of "port". Although, I am by no means sure, I have not seen *anything* about getting Perl on the JVM.
