, , and are three powerful programming languages that share a common feature.

Nobody knows how the hell to capitalize them.

@ovid Since Perl is an acronym for Practical Extraction and Reporting Language it used to be PERL.

@tripleo I always have to look up the capitalization of Smalltalk because I get it wrong every time.

Hmm ... should be in that list.

hetoug,

@ovid @tripleo oh no! You said "powerful" languages. Don't include Javascript in that category, it will cause its head to swell with pride.

tetrislife,

@ovid #Fortran and #Cobol programmers also complain they are not capitalized right.

@hetoug if Perl can be powerful, so can Javascript!
