   Hello Tony!   
      
   09 May 20 17:14, you wrote to me:

   Similar here ;-) Why to even bother with perl/python - if it is possible to do   
   it in bash. Part time collegue wants to know something? grep log | awk | sed |   
   cut and that it is. Ah, he needs that every Sunday? crontab -e... But this I   
   do not call "programming" ;-)   
      
   But OK.   
      
   For example - recently, I needed simple sorting of movies. (parse .nfo, get   
   genre-actors-length-etc from imbd [no api, simple GET] and create Junctions   
   [similar to linux links] on NTFS pointing to AVI/MP4/etc. - that my wife can   
   simply click e.g. on actors name and see what is there) I started with bash   
   and there were many obstacles. Even that NTFS bothered me. But with Delphi? It   
   was smooth. (I added also other links like csfd for .cz specials, to detect   
   subtitles, detect RAR, etc. etc.) I know, there are KODI and similar things.   
   But I needed something simple, knowing what it is doing, specific in certain   
   fuctions.   
      
   Another example - I still remember one guy, who changed IO.SYS that time, due   
   to the fact that his harddrive had one head failing (to skip bad sectors   
   quickly). I know is different level, but one thing there is in common. We   
   needed it, we did it by ourselves.
