To test that you have installed Perl correctly, try running one of your Perl scripts (.pl or .cgi) through your web browser. If it doesn't execute, follow these instructions:
Create the following script in a text editor like Textpad or Notepad (see Editing the Script):
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
print "Hello world, it works!\n";
Save it somewhere, like c:\tmp\test.pl. Now open the command prompt window and type:
perl c:\tmp\test.pl
Hit the Return key. The message Hello world, it works! should be printed on your screen.

Good luck!
