File Extension PERL

File type: Source File

The PERL file type is primarily associated with 'Perl'.

In computer programming, Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language.

Perl was originally developed by Larry Wall, a linguist working as a systems administrator for NASA, in 1987, as a general purpose Unix scripting language to make report processing easier.

Typically lower case on *nix systems.

When windows gives you an error message saying that it
"Cannot open PERL files", this means either:

A. You need to identify a program that can open the file
B. Or your registry may be damaged

In both cases it is strongly recommended that you
run a free scan for registry errors.
