Help with extracting sequence with PERL?

Hi
I am an undergraduate and am working on an evolutionary biology research project. I am just starting to learn how to use PERL.
I have a list of consecutive homologous genes and I want to retreive their sequence from a library. I have my file arranged as:
-Gene1
-homolog1
-Gene2
-homolog2
-etc..

I would want to make a file out of the first gene with its homolog and display something like:
>gene 1
SEQUENCE

>homolog 1
SEQUENCE

and have separate files for each gene(with corresponding homolog). I have already downloaded the DNA library for the genes and the homologs.

Is that clear enough? Thanks a lot for reading this.. :)
