Steve, there are lots of threads here about mod_rewrite. This one has a lot of information in it for different configurations of Links but there are plenty of others:

Essentially you will need a global to rewrite the URLs within Links templates etc., and mod_rewrite rules within the directories you are rewriting URLs to.
So if you want a dynamic URL to look like domain.com/articles/article-L1.html then you need to create a directory called articles in your root directory, and then put a rewrite rule in an .htaccess file inside it.
There is a free detail_page plugin from pugdog that is in the plugin download area, it is worth getting that as it will allow you to do what I outlined above very easily.
Mod_perl is less important for this but if you are interested here is some background reading.
Good luck .
PS Someone from GT needs to look at the default styles for this forum - inline links are practically invisible!
