The Duct Tape of the Internet by Randal L. Schwartz
When you’re a Perl programmer, you never fret about those little ugly tasks 
that creep up. Perl can deal with file wrangling, text manipulation, and

task and shows how he solved it with Perl. (Reprinted with permission from Sys 
Admin magazine.)
