Put it in Xitami's CGI-BIN directory, make sure you have Perl installed,
and that the Perl executable is on your PATH (eg c:\perl\bin is in your
PATH). If you're running on Windows then Xitami will treat things in
the cgi-bin directory that have a #! line as their first line that
mentions "perl" in it, as perl programs to run; the chmod is not
necessary under Windows (it's a unix/linux thing).
