What Does Microsoft Think of Perl? (1999)

Including this snippet of a time long past:

    <html>
    <body>
    <script language="PerlScript">
    $window->document->write("Hello world!");
    </script>
    </body>
    </html>

It was actually possible to use Perl as a client-side scripting language in IE, through ActiveX. I'm imagining a different future where this won over JavaScript.
