in reply to Perl Generating error on display.
your code works fine. The problem you may be coming across is your shebang line. It looks like you mixed linux with windows.
#!/perl/bin/perl.exe
for a typical linux machine it would look similar to #!/usr/bin/perl. And for windows it would be the full path to the program.
What is the error that you are getting?
