Thanks!
But the problem is the following:
the user has to enter an url and now i want to put "http://"; always in front (and show it on the screen) so that the user doesn't have to enter this everytime.

I've set up a default variable like the following but can't vouch for
it being the proper way to do so.

my $new_uid ||= '700'; # default to 700 if it doesn't exist.

This has a few extra quotes escaped on behalf of Mr. Gates:

perl -e "$p='http://';print \"Enter: $p\";$t=<STDIN>;print $p.$t;"

or
$p='http://';
print "Enter: $p";
$t=<STDIN>;
print $p.$t;
