Common guys, It is true that windows does not care about the location of perl but it does care about the operators like "-w". If you are concern with the location of perl, then an easy way is to set it up for the PC directory structure and then go to your unix and create a link with the same structure, but point it to the "/usr/bin/perl" or whatever.
"#!/perl/bin/perl" "mkdir /perl" "mkdir /perl/bin" "ln -s /perl/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl" Would this work? In reality you only need to set it for the unix type os, but be awared of the operators.
