Strangely enough, I'm not forced to use C on Unix either. :-)

My day-to-day languages on Unix include C, Ada, Python, PHP (work only;
you won't catch me using it at home), and bash for shell scripting.

Other languages I have used or have considered using on Unix over the
years include Fortran, Java, COBOL, Pascal, Modula-2 and C++.
