Hi all,

I have installed perl package using synaptic packet manager. It also shows that the package has been installed. But i am unable to see the perl in applications or in desktop.

I need that if we install netbeans means we can see that in applications->programming.

Like that how can we see perl

Perl is not a GUI application. Is a programming language.

Also required : sudo apt-get install libperl-dev

Thanks i tried that, however it hasnt posted. I shall remove my post from here.

Plus i was wondering if i'd be better off writing this in Perl, as the thread was headed perl i though it was the best place to ask
