Starting Point for my Task

1
Hi guys. I'm new to perl programming, but I need to do this task of automating a certain process that involves receiving a file from a mobile phone (coming from either infrared or bluetooth -- the script needs to support both) and processing it by invoking a program (I think this part is the easy one). I need to finish this module within a week's time so please help me guys. Please, I beg anyone of you.

I will use the latest Ubuntu version as OS because the processing of the file involves a program that only runs in Linux. When the user sends the data to the desktop, the script must automatically do the processing and send the output back again to the mobile phone using the technology that has been used to send the initial file.

Now, the big question is -- "WHERE DO I START???" What particular modules do I need to read. Guys, I need a miracle to happen. Please help. Thanks for your time in reading this. :P

Many thanks,
Eric
