There are a few Germans in the POV-Ray community, but Warp's not one of
them - he's Finnish.

Maybe in the country he lives in it's all the same... Germany, Finland...
what's the difference? Crazy Europeans all of them. ;)
(Well, not that I can blame anybody. For example to me places like
Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana are all the same. South
United States. Aren't they all the same? To locals this might be a
sacrilege for all I know... :P )

They have an awesome set of tutorials that kind of make up for it. I
would much rather use a scripting language (or less preferably XML)
instead of tacking on an endless series of command-line arguments, though.

Also, ImageMagick's command-line syntax still makes 10x more sense than
SQL. For example:
INSERT INTO clients
(client_id, client_name, client_type)
SELECT supplier_id, supplier_name, 'advertising'
FROM suppliers
where clients.client_id = suppliers.supplier_id);
The first set of column names is contained in parentheses, the second
set isn't.
When creating filegroups you don't use quotes:
ALTER DATABASE AdventureWorks ADD FILEGROUP MyFileGroup
When adding files to them you do use them:
ALTER DATABASE AdventureWorks
ADD FILE
(NAME = N'MyFileGroup',
FILENAME = N'C:\AdventureWorks\MyFileGroup.ndf',
SIZE = 5MB,
MAXSIZE = 100MB,
FILEGROWTH = 5MB)
TO FILEGROUP MyFileGroup
Conditional IF statements don't use brackets or a keyword to close the
block (though I just learned that you can optionally surround the block
with BEGIN and END).

If you can find what you're looking for, yeah.
I still prefer the netpbm technique of actually making several dozen
programs that actually work in a pipeline, so you can just find the program
you want rather than having to try to guess at syntax for arguments.

C# - a language whose greatest drawback
is that its best implementation comes
from a company that doesn't hate Microsoft.
