using cgi and perl to create guestbook

[astridca]

Hello,
I am trying to create a guestbook in my cgi-bin folder. However, I have been conducting some research, and I've discovered that in order to do that, I would also need to use perl--and hence know the path to my perl interpreter. How do I find the path? Does x10hosting allow its hostees to use perl?
Thank you.

/usr/bin/perl

It's located on the left menu in CPanel

Thanks a lot. That was very helpful.
When I'm typing in the path for the perl interpreter in the cgi file, do I include the #! before /usr/?

Yes, the shebang tells where to find the correct interpreter for the following code.

Shebang being #!
