Set shell environment variables using perl

cooldude has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, The idea is to create a setup using perl so that I can set the shell environment variable. The shell I'm using is tcsh. I've tried using $ENV but it is not working for me. $ENV works perfectly fine in the script, and I'm able to manipulate them. But when I echo the value of the variable in the parent shell, it is not set. Thanks!
