Yes and no. i5/OS has two optionally installable components -- Qshell and PASE -- that many sites install as standard options nowadays. Qshell is the 'native' shell and can be entered with the STRQSH (or simply QSH) command. PASE is an AIX run-time environment that supports AIX binaries and supplies a few different shells, e.g., Korn, Bourne, and C shells. Basic access is via an easy API call -- CALL QP2TERM.

PERL can be obtained -- IBM Porting Central for System i. Note that Zend Core for i5/OS -- PHP development and production environment for i5/OS -- is discussed on the same page.

Lots of IBM documentation is available. And plenty of internet help is out there.
