NAME
       rh-perl524 - manual page for rh-perl524 2.3 Software Collection

SYNOPSIS
       scl enable rh-perl524 'perl'

DESCRIPTION
       Package	rh-perl524  provides  Perl programming language delivered as a
       Software Collection. For more information about	Software  Collections,
       see  the	 scl(1) man page. By installing the rh-perl524 collection, you
       will get the minimum working set of packages to	have  a	 working  Perl
       programming language.

       Software	 Collections allow you to build and execute applications which
       are not located in the filesystem root hierarchy, but are stored in  an
       alternative  location,  which is /opt/rh/rh-perl524/root in case of the
       rh-perl524 collection.

       Perl is a high-level programming language with roots in C, sed, awk and
       shell  scripting.  Perl is good at handling processes and files, and is
       especially good at handling text. Perl’s hallmarks are practicality and
       efficiency.   While  it is used to do a lot of different things, Perl’s
       most common applications are system administration  utilities  and  web
       programming. A large proportion of the CGI scripts on the web are writ-
       ten in Perl.

       When you want to work with the rh-perl524 collection, use the scl util-
       ity  (see the scl(1) man page for usage) to enable the scl environment.
