And you can't do this?
alias pcalc='perl ~/pcalc.pl'
No. With alias, I can create an alias file that works with sh (and ksh,
bash) and csh (and tcsh). This would be dot'ed in your .profile as:
. ~/.alias
or source'd in your .cshrc as:
source ~/.alias
If you want the same as a script:
mv ~/pcalc.pl ~/bin/pcalc
BTW, out here in the real world (that would be UNIX), *.pl stands for
Perl Library file, not a script.
