ActivePerl is a binary distribution of the Perl Programming Language. This technology comes precompiled for out-of-the-box installation and includes core Perl, popular modules, the Perl Package Manager (PPM), and complete documentation. There are multiple editions available for ActivePerl: Community, Business, and Enterprise editions.
- ActivePerl is dedicated to programmers who like working with Perl, aiming to improve productivity. It provides ready-to-install packages for Windows and other systems, namely Mac OS X, Linux, HP.
- We're moving all of our ActivePython, ActivePerl, and ActiveTcl downloads to our new ActiveState Platform. When downloading these languages, we'll guide you through the process of creating your free Platform account. Once created, you'll get access to your very own copy of the language in the form of a project. Learn more about the Platform.
- ActivePerl 을 서버용으로 사용할 수도 있겠지만 필자가 아는 한 주요한 용도는, 컴퓨터 내에서 각종 잡다한 업무를 처리하는 데 있다. Perl 은 IT 세계의 Swiss Army Knife (일명 맥가이버 칼)로 불린다. ActivePerl 은 ActiveState 라는 회사에서 배포한다.

ActivePerl is a distribution of Perl from ActiveState (formerly part of Sophos) for Windows, macOS, Linux, Solaris, AIX and HP-UX.
A few main editions are available, including: Community (free, for development use only), and several paid tiers up to Enterprise that includes support for OEM licensing. It includes a version of the Perl package manager (PPM) for installing packages from CPAN, etc.
The Windows version includes an Active Scripting component for Windows Script Host (WSH) called PerlScript and an ISAPI module for embedding within Internet Information Services (IIS).

PerlScript[edit]
PerlScript was initially solely an ActiveX Scripting Engine produced by the company ActiveState for use with Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS) that allows for programmers to use Perl-based code in addition to, or in place of, VBScript or JScript in the context of web servers running the ASP protocol. Subsequently Apache::ASP was created for the Apache web server, which allows for coding with only Perl, but neither VBScript nor JScript. PerlScript can also be used to write Windows Script Host-based programs, similar to VBScript.
Standalone PerlScripts can be executed if they are created with the file extension .pls, in which case they do not require enclosing XML, e.g.
.pls files do not gain access to drag and drop WSH functionality.
PerlScripts which have the extension wsf require XML tags which specify the job id and script language, e.g.
wsf PerlScripts gain access to WSH drag and drop functionality, similarly to Perl Droplets in the now-obsolete MacPerl.
Most WSH objects are available via the implicitly created $WScript object.
