Those were the days

If you find yourself writing awk scripts of more than, say, a few hundred lines, you might consider using a different programming language. Emacs Lisp is a good choice if you need sophisticated string or pattern matching capabilities. The shell is also good at string and pattern matching; in addition, it allows powerful use of the system utilities. More conventional languages, such as C, C++, and Lisp, offer better facilities for system programming and for managing the complexity of large programs.


Emacs Lisp и shell в кач-ве идеальных кандидатов для pattern-matching! Лисп наравне с C и C++ в кач-ве мейнстримного языка!
