I don't think so. Since its original name was "Personal Home Page Tools"
for scripts to facilitate created personal webpages on a server speaks
to its origins. How an application interacts in with the user from a
webserver is very different from that of a desktop application. That
said, PHP is one of the easiest languages to get started on. I use it a
lot but never liked it double-butt-load of core commands, I mean com'on
PHP gods have you not ever hear of a command parameter? How many in
PHP's gaggle of "sort" commands vs Perl one: sort?

You can get some things done, but it takes a lot of kung-foo!

Single word, "ugh".

I have been looking at python since there seems to be so much
development in that direction, but <groan> another language to
learn...maybe not so bad since the syntax is so different, unlike the
problems I suffer when I switch back and forth between Perl and PHP.
