You can either set your PATH environment variable to check /usr/local/bin first like this:<br />
<br />
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH<br />
<br />
(You may want to add that to your profile)<br />
<br />
Or you can create an alias that points to the new Perl:<br />
<br />
alias perl='/usr/local/bin/perl'<wbr /><br />
<br />
(Also may go in your .profile (Or system wide /etc/profile)

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
