I'm afraid only old farts write anything in Perl

mutter "OK, Boomer" when you try to tell them how much better CPAN was than

although Go would be a perfectly reasonable choice for this task as well
(and would look a lot like Python: get an object back, pick off the useful
fields).
I must be an old fart then; the last language I used where white space was
part of the syntax was FORTRAN...
