I thought about perl but I have to relearn perl every time I need to use it - its the only languae I use regularly that I need loads of reference books for
Don't go Perl, go Python! This is of course flamewar stuff (and has already provoked one on csound-list), but I can see a simple reason, why Perl is not appropriate as a PD scripting language: It uses the $ to declare $variables! Combine that with PD's own use of the dollar symbol and I see a big mess coming.
