in reply to How do I use Perl?
First you need Perl installed on your system. If you use Unix/Linux, chances are good that it already is. Otherwise,
goto perl.com.
If you use Win32, try ActiveState. If you use a Mac, try
MacPerl.
Once you have it installed, the first step to using Perl is to read perlman:perl. Also, check out perldoc.com for up to date documentation.
To learn Perl, buy and read Learning Perl and hang out here.
Good luck!
