Executive and Corporate (E&C) Technical Support: Perl
Perl
Perl has become a language of choice for World Wide Web
development, text processing, Internet services, mail filtering, systems administration, and most every other task requiring a portable and easily developed solution. Your E&C has the Perl interpreter already installed at the following location:
~/usr/local/bin/perl
Perl5 Modules
Perl5 Modules can greatly extend the functionality of your Perl programming language interpreter. By using prepared modules written by others, instead of using your own code, you can save yourself both time and effort. Many popular Perl5 modules can be easily installed on your E&C.
You may run the following command to access documentation for your favorite
Perl5 module. Substitute the module name for MODULE::FAVORITE below.
% perldoc MODULE::FAVORITE
