It's not perl or shell.

It's PHP, just choose either and rename it to PHP.

E.g. choose 'Perl', then after saving it, choose a filename ending in .php to ensure it's parsed by PHP.

Choose plain text, really that's all PHP is...A plain text file. Perl is .pl and contains a header as does shell scripts.
