Just name it as something.pl and run it. AS Perl sets up associations to
run Perl programs automatically.

Unless your console window is set up to stay on screen after program
ends, you will have to either add something to program to keep it there
(reading a line from stdin, system call to pause, anything) or first
open window with cmd.exe and run it from there. Better yet, if you have
experience with PC from a years ago you may remember DOS shells like
Norton Commander, so you may like to install similar Windows text-mode
shell, like FAR Manager (http://www.farmanager.com/?l=en) and run your
stuff from there.
