Sorry, it seems I did not explain enough.
My question is how to pass those 2 variables $shell_srch and $shell_replace into processing command.
So, I would have:
In such way the perl trying to open files 'shell_srch=..' and 'shell_replace='
I thought it could be done with '-s' option to provide switches from command line, but I can't get it work.
Mayby you know proper sysntax to use '-s' together with -p or -n?
Maybe there is another way to pass shell-vars to the perl command?
P.S. Just realized dennis.jacob your advise: so, this way, with double-quotes, the shell will replace the variables by its values before start the perl.
But, how to make perl be able to work with own variables?
For example, I could need to use the '$_' and '$.' together.

What is the difference between defining the global variable through our and using use vars ?
Is the variable created using our goes beyond even package scope?
