Under Unix on Mac OS X 10.3.5, I'm writing a Perl script that uses some
ImageMagick and PerlMagick calls to read, manipulate and display images. I'm
executing the script from an X11 terminal in order to see the image. X opens
a new window and displays the graphic just fine, but the Perl script pauses
execution until I manually close the X window displaying the image. Any
clues?

Further, I'll ultimately need to take over the screen completely for an
installation art project (no window borders/widgets) and refresh that same
window/screen with a new graphic. Assuming I can fix the script pausing
problem, can write repeatedly to the same X window? Or would something like
Perl/Tk or vx be a better tool for the job?

Thanks so much!
