Does anyone know how to configure Cygwin to execute Perl code from the command line?

I installed Cygwin on Windows 2000.  It works very well.  I also have ActivePerl installed.  It works well too.

If I type perl -e 'print "Hello World";' on the Cygwin command line, the response is "bash: perl: command not found".

I've searched the archives and several sites but can't find a starting point.  Can anyone direct me to some relevant documentation?

Thanks.
