--fdj2RfSjLxBAspz7 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Hi all, [ please Cc: me in replies, I'm not subscribed to this list ] While read developpers handbook, I noticed that the tools-intro part still references Perl as being part of the base system. I corrected this is the attached patch, and moved it just after the ports collection mention. I dare to add Python and Ruby as well since they are both popular script langage nowadays. Note that the patch is a little bit fat regarding of what it's supposed to do, because I needed to redo line wrapping.
