This last paragraph doesn't quite make sense to me. Is there a missing 
sentence somewhere?

Well, Ruby implements a break, so you've come to the right place. Welcome.

Hopefully so.

Not sure what you mean here. Presumably you already know about ksh93
and about (http://www.kornshell.com/) and (I think it might have been)
DGK's claim (to the effect) that ksh93i has enough of Perl's string
and OO features that they now mostly use ksh instead of Perl?
