Interesting Sentence

[Bil Kleb]

I just stumbled across this sentence,

Any UNIX command or script, including those
written in sh, tcsh, bash, tcl, Perl, or Ruby
as well as AppleScript, can be accessed from
the widget object.

while reading about Apple's Dashboard widgets,

http://developer.apple.com/macosx/dashboard.html

I wasn't so much surprised by the mention of Ruby,
but by the lack of other languages...

In the past, it was more common to see sentence.
gsub(/Ruby/,''), sentence.gsub(/Ruby/,'Python'), or
sentence.gsub(/Ruby/,'Python, Ruby').

Later,
