Try out a cool command that really comes in handy sometimes:
which <command_name>
so, for perl, do:
which perl
It'll show you all the perls in your path...
The handy part comes when you combine it with other commands, like:
file `which <command>`
which will tell you what kind of file <command> is. Handy when you're
not sure whether it's a shell script or an binary.
