Is there an interface language that:
1. Supports usual programming features like maps, sorting, etc.
2. Can return sets.
3. Supports cursors.
4. Allows function definitions to be source.
#1 eliminates PL/pgSQL.
#2 eliminates PL/Tcl
#3 eliminates PL/Python
#4 eliminates PL/Java
I didn't look at Perl because I don't like Perl (just my personal
preference).
Any suggestions?

Uh.. no PL "eliminates" any other PL for most values of "elimination" I
know of. What exactly is it you want, here?

Well, what language *do* you like?
