Well, you obviously will never be able to write the perl equivalent of source in (t)csh scripting, and as long as we don't know what is in that, we cannot help there.

#!/usr/bin/perl -T

use strict;
use warnings;

use Your::Module::To::Do::Csh_Like_Syntax_Source qw( csh_source );

my $cli_arg = shift or die "usage: $0 arg";
# Here be dragons
csh_source ($cli_arg);
# Let us assume you've managed to make this fill the
# appropriate %ENV entries

for (0 .. 5) {
    # Assuming [0] should be 0, just as 1 .. 5
    print qq{--$_---\n$ENV{"InPARAM$_"}\n$ENV{"InVAL$_"}\n};
    }
exit;
