I knew roughly what it is and what it does, but would like to read about it. (I did grep the pod, but didn't find explainations) Which pod? You need to look at perlrun, or Chapter 6 of the Blue Camel. The answer is that on most UNIX(TM) systems, the stuff following the '#!' tells the system how to run the script. Usually it says something like /usr/local/bin/perl. On the Mac, this is superfluous.
