[NTLUG:Discuss] ...Perl in Netscape on Linux...

I am trying to run Perl in Netscape on Linux and not having a lot of
success.
I don't have access to a WEB server that would allow me to try it there,
so I am doing all my testing on a single box, just opening the pages in
my browser.
I suspect that the problem is in "helper applications" but I am not
sure.
Can anyone shed any light here?

Edit->Preferences->Applications
    Description: Perl Programs
       MIMEType: application/x-perl
       Suffixes: pl cgi
"Use this MIME as the outgoing default for these extensions" is not
checked.
"Application" is selected, and the application is "/usr/bin/perl"

x-perl is not found on this machine, but /usr/bin/perl is.
