Take your time to research the proper mailing list addresses for asking questions about FreeBSD. I think you will hvae learned this by now by the number of non-friendly replies to your request. 2. FreeBSD includes, in it's base installation, perl in it's current version. I suggest you install FreeBSD on your system instead of Linux. See http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/install.html for details. 3. FreeBSD ist *not* Linux. You'll probably be better off asking such questions in a Linux-specific forum, such as the many newsgroups on Linux. 4. Research http://www.freebsd.org/. It will provide you with a wealth of information, including questions about basic system configuration, as well as the ports system, i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/ports/lang.html#perl-5.00502 5. You should try to phrase your questions as exactly as possible. Quoting an error message like "command not found" might be helpful; on the other hand, the people you're asking here are expecting of the person asking any such questions that he or she understands what he/she is asking, and that the error message itself should provide adequate information to resolve the problem. 6. If you really want the source to FreeBSD's sh(1), see ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ and http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvweb.cgi/src/bin/sh/ 7. Just because I answered this mail, just *don't* take it for granted I'll be answering any other mail of yours on Linux or perl questions.
