Conversion to Perl

Note: This version has lines and columns numbers to help you with choosing the cell to move from and to, so you don't have to continually count. It also puts a "." only for blank cells you can move to, which I think makes for a more pleasing look and makes it easier to play. If you want the original behavior, start the program with an arg of "-o" for the original behavior.
