What if you try this %perl filename.pl If this runs then it just means that your path_to_perl is wrong on your shebang line.
Happy New Year all!! -----Original Message----- From: John Gilger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 31, 2001 6:27 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: perl on Mac OSX I am not sure whether this is a perl question or a Mac question, but I haven't found a good OSX list yet so please bear with me. I have tried to find the answer in "Learning Perl", "Programming Perl", and the "Perl Cookbook" without success. I write the scripts exactly the same as I do on a Linux box, chmod a+x the file and try to run them. They don't run. Do I need to use an extension like .plx or something?
