Well, the real simplest is:

    #!/bin/sh
    echo content-type: text/plain
    echo
    echo "hello world"

which doesn't depend on a sane location of Perl installation,
or even understanding HTML. :)

If you can get exactly "hello world" from that, you're on your way...
if you can't, you need to seek local authority to discover how things
are set up.
