I'm very very new at Perl. I have a question regarding Perl scripting on
Windows. I'm using library books to learn and most of the examples are for
UNIX....

My question is:
After writing a .pl file in a text editor, is it neccessary to make it
executable using the command:
        chmod +x example.pl ?

I don't think the book is suggesting to make a .pl file into an .exe file.
Is this step something that is neccessary for UNIX but not for Windows?


As it stands now, all my .pl files are associated with ActiveState perl.
When i double click on them, the perl window opens and displays the output
for only a fraction of a second before it closes.
