perl

[Maljonic]

does anyone know if my barrysworld site supports this? I'm trying to follow these instructions but I can't find what it's talking about. i.e. I can't find the location of perl:

Okay, the first thing to do is to open story.cgi in a text editor. If perl is not located at /usr/bin/perl on your system, change the first line of message.cgi to #! followed by the location of perl (no spaces).

if, in your root there is a folder called usr/bin/perl don't do anything, if there is not contact you host and ask were perl.exe is.

why not use php, which BW definatally has
