I feel your problem is with associations. If you install Active Perl, they
make all the registration entries for you. The other choice is to say perl
<scriptname> provided perl is in your path. I chose the former, but run in
multi-unix/Windows environments

In my opion you should use the linux box. Perl works with windows though I
have never used perl in windows so I can't help you with that. I use linux
becuse I know its free, reliable, secure, and you can not only make perl
scripts but you can program any part of the linux OS you want too.
