I'm assuming you are looking for MacPerl [if your on a mac you will be]. Here's a plan: 1. Get MacPerl: Power and Ease [Chris and Vicki]. If your short on cash or you want to take a peek, online version at http://www.macperl.com/ptf_book/ 2. Read above from start to end. 3. Make a special effort to understand referencing (this stuff "->" or this "$$"). 4. Work through the example at http://webreview.com/wr/pub/98/08/21/perl/index.html 5. Decide what to do next.
