.SH SYNOPSIS

.B scl

\fIenable %{scl_name} \[aq]perl\[aq]\fR
fca7bd
.SH DESCRIPTION
fca7bd
Package %{scl_name} provides Perl programming language delivered as a Software
fca7bd
Collection. For more information about Software Collections,
fca7bd
see the \fIscl\fR(1) man page. By installing the %{scl_name} collection,
fca7bd
you will get the minimum working set of packages to have a working Perl
fca7bd
programming language.
fca7bd
.PP
fca7bd
Software Collections allow you to build and execute applications
fca7bd
which are not located in the filesystem root hierarchy,
fca7bd
but are stored in an alternative location, which is
fca7bd
\fI%{_scl_root}\fR in case of the %{scl_name} collection.
fca7bd
.PP
fca7bd
Perl is a high\-level programming language with roots in C, sed, awk and shell
fca7bd
scripting. Perl is good at handling processes and files, and is especially
fca7bd
good at handling text. Perl's hallmarks are practicality and efficiency.
fca7bd
While it is used to do a lot of different things, Perl's most common
fca7bd
applications are system administration utilities and web programming. A large
fca7bd
proportion of the CGI scripts on the web are written in Perl.

When you want to work with the %{scl_name} collection, use the \fBscl\fR

fca7bd
