You can execute the korn-shell script internally by using system().
## The perl script
use strict;
$ENV{'PASSED_FROM_PERL'} = 'Hello, ksh!';
system('ksh', 'kornscript.sh') == 0
or die "system returned ", $? << 8, "from ksh kornscript.sh; stopped";
-----
## kornscript.sh
echo "Passed from Perl: $PASSED_FROM_PERL"
----
Prints out:
Passed from Perl: Hello, ksh!
For more details, do a 'perldoc -f system'.
