I use Think but don't remember choosing it. I don't have MPW but do have
an old Think C. 

Alpha remembers the original linend state (Mac, UNIX, IBM) and you can
change it. MacPerl likes Mac style only, I beleive. If and when you
download your scripts to a UNIX host, you need to change them over to
UNIX. 

When you edit a MacPerl file (.pl), there is a MacPerl menu item (Camel
icon) that includes a menu command to "Tell MacPerl.../Save as CGI"
among others.  There is also a menu command "Quick Save As.../CGI". Both
of these commands depend on the presence of the file "CGI Script" in the
"MacPerl Extensions" folder. I've used both successfully.
