Since when is PHP a close imitation of Perl? It may be similar in syntax, but that's about it. PHP has one purpose: server side scripting for web pages. There are a bunch of functions and modules which might not be so "web-related" (yet they are still useful in certain situations), but the main focus is still on server side scripting. Therefore, it is not merely a close imitation of Perl.
