in reply to Can't open perl script...no such file or directory

Hello Thanasis1988,

If you're doing this in notepad on Windows, you should know that all files (even if you give extensions, in this case a .pl) will save as bonjour.pl.txt. To confirm, open up your command prompt cmd and type dir. You should find the cause of your problem.

As an aside, I suggest that you first get set up with a better development environment - get yourself a better text editor, say Notepad++ or Sublime Text. You'll thank yourself later in saving much of your productivity for better tasks :-)

Have fun!

EDIT:

Borked links :-( Thanks Corion!

    Hi again, First of all i'd like to thank you for your quick response.I have the same problem when i am coding in Notepad and in Padre.So maybe there is another reason why i am having this problem.

      Please copy and paste the exact input you give and the exact error message you get. This helps us diagnose the problem much better than your description of what you think you see.

        Ok i've solved it.Propably i am an idiot cause i've noticed that i have saved the file as filename.pl.pl. Thanks a lot again!!!
