Q: Problem #2 (stack commands), if we store the stack in a file does it matter where the file is?

A: It should not matter where I am (the directory I'm in) when I run the push or pop commands - so you should make sure the stack is not stored using a relative path.

Q: Problem #2 (stack commands), can I do this one in perl?

A: Sure.

Q: For Problem #4 (bash startup files), what do you mean by "system-wide" shell startup file - doesn't the shell look at my startup files?

A: There is a startup file that is shared by all users, that bash reads and executes every time you start a shell - that's the one you need to find and document (not your startup files!).
