Another very good starting point is the manpage perlintro. At the console prompt, just type, "man perlintro". I thought it was a very good introduction and overview. Also, the man perltoc page is a Table of Contents for all the perl manpages. Just FYI, you can also get man pages from Google. Just search on "man perltoc" for instance and you will see links to the man pages online. Good luck!

Hello All,
I just recently loaded linux onto my laptop. I hope this was not a bad move. But I cannot find the Activstate Perl I downloaded.I am using openSUSE Linux. I also am having trouble deciding which is the command line to open my scripts. There is the : Gnome Terminal, the Konsole, the x Terminal, and the Terminal Program - Super User Mode. Don't think it's that one for sure! I typed in the shebang line as such #!/usr/bin/perl then hit enter, after that I just type the name of the file.pl in. Is there any basic info on just what needs to be done in regards to saving a file to where, then opening it up at the command line?
I would greatly appreciate it.   Thank you!!
