How do I run my Perl scripts?

If you’ve installed ActivePerl or a Perl project you created on the Platform, you can run your Perl scripts (files that end in a .pl) with the Perl executable perl.exe.

So if you have a script called myscript.pl, on Windows you could run it from the command line like this:

perl.exe myscript.pl

From the command line on MacOS or Linux, the command would be:

perl myscript.pl
