Well, based on my definition, that's easy to answer. Have you solved
problems using Python? If you have a bunch of HTML pages and you need
to get some info out of all of them by COB today, do you think "I can
do that with Python", or do you think "I can do that with sed, awk,
grep, and five levels of pipe"? The tools you use for an urgent job
will be the ones you know.
