Variable to refer to program name

Hi All,

I am about as noob as you can get so please forgive my complete naivete.

I have jumped into the world of perl with both feet and have gotten hung 
up on a seemingly 
trivial matter.  In *NIX shell scripting, the variable $0 refers to the 
zeroth command line parameter,
i.e., the program itself.  I would like to use something like this in my 
perl scripts.  Is there an 
equivalent to this in perl? 


Thanks,

Paul Feeny
