Is Perl in your system path? The first line in the script doesn't help
any in DOSneyland. I usually just type "perl script.pl" if it is. It is
possible to associated the dot-p-l extension with Perl.exe in the
Windows GUI, but I don't believe its possible to flag an executable in
dos that isn't EXE or COM (or BAT or CMD). Usually if you need to run
in the dark box, you make a batch file.
