That's a very sound descision: use the best tool for the job
you've got to get done and don't get stuck in "that's-better-
than-something-else" for purely ideological reasons. If you
need something like Perl's 'eval EXPR' then C or C++ isn't
where you will find it (without a lot of pain) so use Perl
(or some other interpreted language supplying the required
functionality). If you've got the chance to mix interpreted
and compiled languages so that you can pick the best of both
worlds don't hesitate unless for good reasons.
