I would be willing to talk a bit about AWK, SED, and BASH. I have a
few short scripts that I did in both AWK and REXX just for the heck of
it. I could also talk a bit about TCL, but my code samples would not
be nearly as enlightening. I mainly used TCL since it was the embeded
command language in a refinery optimizer that I was working on a few
months ago.
