This menu ONLY runs CodeWarrior. However, the Extensions Menu is
accessible for our needs. Pepper will execute any file placed in its
Extensions folder (same path as Pepper) when you pull it down from this
menu. Since you can't put all your perl scripts there, I wrote two perl
scripts, Perl_Check and Perl_Run that check the syntax of your current
selection or run it. This is still in development with Pepper's author,
but if you like I can send you a copy for your criticism.

No, I don't use the worksheet. Just any old window.

There are still a few things that need to grow. But the really great
thing for me is that Pepper is native, now.
