OK, I'm now well beyond my knowledge of what is happening so please bare with me!

"which get_iplayer" returns /usr/local/bin/get_iplayer

When I look in this folder get_iplayer is shown as an "alias" that contains the following:

"/usr/local/cellar/get_iplayer/3.01.0/bin/get_iplayer; exit;"

There is also an alias for "get_iplayer_web_pvr" which points to the same folder as above. The "get_player" and "get_iplayer_web_pvr" files that are contained in the "/usr/local/cellar/get_iplayer/3.01.0/bin" folder are both listed as unix executables by Finder. Do these executables call the Perl scripts? If so, where the Perl scripts that I need to modify to use the system version of Perl?

I'm afraid that I'm way out of my depth in trying to figure out what is happening. Any assistance that you can provide would be greatly appreciated!
