What is PL file?
PL stands for "Perl language." It is one of the most popular programming languages on the planet. These PL scripts are often written in order to automate certain tasks. This is because it's easier to write a script to do one specific repetitive task than it is to do that task manually. For example, if you wanted all of the files in a directory with the word "PowerPoint" in their name to be renamed so that they all have .pptx file extensions, then you could write a script that would automatically go through and rename each one for you. There are many reasons why people might want to open up .pl files including debugging purposes or just curiosity.
