Don't you mean: int main(int argc, char *argv[], char *env[]) C *requires* that all code must be in a function and that all programs have a function called 'main'. > Is there a equivalant function in Perl.

Perl, like many other programming languages, does not require that all code be in a function. As others have pointed out ( $0, @ARGV ) is the equivalent of C's *argv[] and %ENV for *env[] and exit() to return a value the way main does.
