in thread what is the difference between perl scripting in windows and linux

Major difference at the scripting level on Windows is the lack of #!

This is true, but I'd like to point out that on Windows, the switches will be processed although the path to Perl is ignored. eg #!/usr/bin/perl -w will turn on warnings, but the path part is meaningless.

    Yup, but you can't count on that for other languages, like shells.
