/me puts in the perl/Perl/PERL plug: It is not called PERL. It is either perl or Perl, depending on whether you are talking about the interpreter or the language, respectively. Just one of those 'ick' subjects. Just as you wouldn't say "I am doing a ViSUaL BaSIc program". It is Visual Basic, not ViSUaL BaSIc. There. :D
