Raouf,
Again, apologies as to the late reply.
No, perl is not, as of yet, natively supported in BSF.
Perl *was* supported on Win32 only via the ActiveScript engine,
using the PerlScript interface; however, the ActiveScript engine
has fallen into disrepair, due to lack of a maintainer.
A native Java interface to perl for BSF to use is lacking; it is a
project that many would appreciate, myself included.

Not that I know of.
There is the JPL toolkit, which allows calling of perl from Java
and vice versa. I am unfamiliar with its workings, I am unhappy to
admit.
That said, it is something that I am looking into, since getting
Perl into BSF (w/o ActiveScript) is something that I would love to
see.

Thanks for the reply. To your knowledge is there a Java implementation of
perl in Java ?
