If your script isn't working and it says to make sure there are no newlines in it, check the comments and make sure that nothing's wrapped while you were editing it in pico.
#A comment should look like this
#A comment should not take up
two lines like this

Make sure you uploaded it in ASCII format. Make sure it's chmoded to 755. Make sure the shebang line has the correct path to perl for your server (if you don't know what it is, do a "whereis perl" while you're in a shell).
