Well, just to be certain, are you talking about Perl the programming language? Or perl, the executable program which groks and executes Perl programs? If it's Perl the programming language, you probably should cite some edition of the Camel book as if it were a language specification. But if it's the piece of software you're talking about, you should probably do that much like another net resource, indicating the version number and release date, and a URL where information should be found. I'm sorry that I don't know of a citation for (either) Perl, but I hope you'll be successful in tracking one down. Consider also sending this question directly to Larry Wall. I'm sure he'd like to know about your possible citation, in any case.
