The Script Center Script Repository: Sample Perl Scripts

"The Script Repository categorizes the best sample scripts designed to run on Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003. The categories listed below connect you to sample scripts written using Perl for Windows." [See http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/scripts/perl/default.mspx.]

[On another page, Microsoft recommends use of the ActiveState Perl distribution.]

"And if you’d like to see all the Perl scripts, without having to click through all the categories, then visit the Master Index page for Perl scripts" [which is at] http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/scripts/perl/prlindex.mspx
