Ok, I'm about to start a holy war. :) I've been asked to write something
about coding scripts to parse Pcap files. All sorts of languages have
libraries for doing this: Ruby, Perl, Python, Autoit, etc. Which one do you
think is the most readable/easiest?


I've had good experiences with Python and Scapy and with Ruby and
Scruby (or something like that). HDM shipped a modified version of
Scruby with MSF for a while but then dropped it in favour of something
else which I can't remember the name of.
