I don't see how Perl is needed.  I do not mean Perl to be required,
so you'll have to be more specific on why you think it is.

Besides, if I spent so much time providing users with examples, it
is clearly not to see them removed by the distro.  These examples are
part of the package, and must be treated like documentation.

Cheers!
