I can't get perl to work on my PC with the Windows 2000 pro OS.
when I type in perl example.pl at the command prompt I get
no such file or directory message, but I am looking right at the example.pl file.

type PATH at the C:\> command prompt I get
PATH=D:\Perl\bin\; I still can't even run a simple print ("Hello\n");
from the C:\>command prompt. where is what I type
#!D:\Perl\bin\;
print ("Hello\n");
then I press enter and nothing happens but a carriage return

When I type perldoc perl at the command prompt I get the following:
Can't spawn "cmd.exe": No such file or directory at D:\Perl\bin\PERLDOC.bat line 395
Is this why I can not get perl to work

That fixed it. But I still can't make a simple script like:
print ("Hello\n");
print to the command line. Here is what I do:
C:\>perl
print ("Hello\n"); I hit enter and nothing. what am I doing wrong?

open(FILEHANDLE, "+>$filename");

ll active - if it is, it exits, otherwise
it keeps running and updates the file with the new PID.
