PHP vs Perl
I am becoming extremely frustrated with the limitations of the PHP language and would like to program in something else that has more power. I'd prefer Ruby but I need to be able to deploy it to people's servers and ruby is a bit difficult to deploy for the average webmaster. So I was thinking Perl might be a good choice since it a lot more common.
How common is it to have Perl run out of the box on most servers? Can the average webmaster set it up if he needs to? Is there any way to protect the code like IonCube or ZendGuard?
It so frustrating being forced to use PHP all the time. I want something better but need to be able to work with everyone else in the community.
