Nokia Releases Perl for Series 60 Phones

Posted by timothy on from the best-programmed-with-keypad dept.

Jukka Laurila writes "Nokia just released a port of Perl 5.8 and 5.9 for the Series 60 smartphone platform. The port contains just the interpreter core, ie. there's no support for any of the Series 60 APIs yet, but this is still great news for all you Perl aficionados out there."

    As long as there is a good keyboard it won't matter. Perl is a write-only language anyway...
