most anything that will run on unix should run on an mpe box.  there
are some limitations.....but it should be all pretty transparent.

i suspect where you are having troubles is just trying to get perl to
run.  the 'mpe way' would be:

:run perl.pub.perl < prlprog    or
:run perl.pub.perl;info="prlprog"

the more unix-y way would be go into the shell....
:sh
# perl my_script.pl                  or
# my_script.pl

that should be enough to get you started.  if you have anymore
questions, y'all come back now, ya hear? :-)         - d
