Profit! :) Sounds like a plan - good luck with it and don't be afraid to spread yourself thin over the languages once you've got the basics under your belt. There's much to be said for spending just enough time with a language to understand what it is good for and where it's weak and then move on to learn another - when you have a real task to get done spend a few minutes deciding on the most suitable language from among the ones you know. You'll soon develop favourites. -- Steve O'Hara-Smith <steve@sohara.org>
