        That is not my point--true this is a trivial thing
        to do with Perl or TCL. The point is that most
        design flows have a significant investment in
        infrastructure (internal tools and scripts). I've
        been on projects where the management made a
        decision NOT to move to a newer / faster / and
        cheaper simulator since the cost of modifying
        the infrastructure was too great. Consistency
        is a good thing.
