Hello,

If I understand right, you what to have Embperl::Object generate the base
template and include your old pages, which are written in pure Perl, into
it, like other Embperl pages, right?

In this case you should go the other way round. Instead of using
Apache::Registry you should call your Perl script in your base.epl, with the
Paramter syntax => 'Perl'. 

You could also overwrite the method get_receipe of the application object,
to automaticly set the syntax value (see eg/web/epwepapp.pl for an example)
