Package %{scl_name} provides Perl programming language delivered as a Software
|
|
|
f523ca |
Collection. For more information about Software Collections,
|
|
|
f523ca |
see the scl(1) man page. By installing the %{scl_name} collection,
|
|
|
f523ca |
you will get the minimum working set of packages to have a working Perl
|
|
|
f523ca |
programming language.

Usage: scl enable %{scl} 'perl'

Software Collections allow you to build and execute applications
|
|
|
f523ca |
which are not located in the filesystem root hierarchy,
|
|
|
f523ca |
but are stored in an alternative location, which is %{_scl_root}
|
|
|
f523ca |
in case of the %{scl_name} collection.

Perl is a high-level programming language with roots in C, sed, awk and shell
|
|
|
f523ca |
scripting. Perl is good at handling processes and files, and is especially
|
|
|
f523ca |
good at handling text. Perl's hallmarks are practicality and efficiency.
|
|
|
f523ca |
While it is used to do a lot of different things, Perl's most common
|
|
|
f523ca |
applications are system administration utilities and web programming. A large
|
|
|
f523ca |
proportion of the CGI scripts on the web are written in Perl.
