Yes, that's probably fine.  I feel compelled to be a bit pedantic and to point 
out that a .pl file needn't be executable.  Traditionally that was a "Perl 
library", but in the last few years it's the most common extension for Perl 
applications.  But in the prior case the executable mode bit won't be set...

Cheers,
