Nope, better use a module provided by the CPAN, but you asked not to use one.

@SCNCN2010 - I usually try a CPAN search first, then think about using some form of a system command.

+1  A: 

While you asked not to use a module, I always recommend it. CPAN kicks up Cvs::Simple. You may want to consider using it as a reference if you have business case reasons for not using a module.

@jrockway - there can be good reasons to not use modules, but the OP didn't give one.
