[Tex/LaTex] using perl from texlive

perltexlive

I am working on some packages and for the creation of the final dtx files I use perl.
So far it worked from commandline by just calling the script.pl file.

However now I installed texlive 2012 on my laptop and installed my scripts there, but windows (7, 64) does not know how to handle a *.pl file.

How can I use the texlive perl interpreter for this task?

And I recommend installing a full Perl interpreter: Perl Binaries/Windows, because the Perl of TeX Live does not include all needed modules for the scripts provided by the distribution. For example, File::Which is not included that is needed by purifyeps:
