I am a new guy in Perl. I would like to run all my programs in Perl instead of shell script.

Currently,I have a small script called run.scr which is shown below.

#!/bin/csh
#set path and source license
source /ICT/synplicity/synplify/8.6.2/.cshrc_synplify_8.6.2

#run synplify pro
synplify_pro
When I use system function to run it in Perl.
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "start command\n";
$status1=system "/bin/csh","-fc","source /ICT/synplicity/synplify/8.6.2/.cshrc_synplify_8.6.2";
$status2=system "synplify_pro";
print "$status1,$status2, end command\n";
output from Perl show:
start command
0,65280, end command
Compared to shell script, The synplify_pro is not launched.
1.Is there a way to make it working?
2.Any good book or document in Perl will help me to catch up this kind of skill?
Please comment. Thank in advance.
