i need to take a simple php script that writes xml and convert it to a perl script

can anyone who knows perl give me a hand?

\<?php  
$filename = “/home/users/web/bbbb/xxxxx/htdocs/data/collection.xml”;  
$raw\_xml = file\_get\_contents(“php://input”);

print $raw\_xml;

$fp = fopen($filename, “w”);  
fwrite($fp,$GLOBALS[‘HTTP\_RAW\_POST\_DATA’]);  
fclose($fp);  
?\>
