Hello,

   First, let me apologize if I'm sending this to the wrong place.  I am 
in need of help with Perl on the Mac OSX.  Please take a look at the 
following listing:

Welcome to Darwin!
[localhost:~] anthonym% ls
Applications    Library         Perl Stuff      Sites           
mac_perl.pl
Desktop         Movies          Pictures        ex1_1.pl
Documents       Music           Public          ex1_1_perl.pl
[localhost:~] anthonym% chmod +x mac_perl.pl
[localhost:~] anthonym% ./mac_perl.pl
../mac_perl.pl: Command not found.
[localhost:~] anthonym%


I cannot get my Perl code to execute.  Do you have any idea what I'm 
doing wrong?  Here is the file source:

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Perl on Mac OS X\n";


Thanks for any assistance you can give.

Anthony Mason
