	I think a copy of the source for the article would be at:

	Personally - I use tcsh as a login shell, and script in sh or
	perl as necessary. If you are admining a system you need to
	know sh scripting to work on the startup scripts.

	Most simple scripts can be written in both. There are some
	facilities that you just have to go from csh into sh for,
	though for any reasonable sized script perl is so much more
	capable than either :)
