My hopes are this... as perl and OS X become better friends, we will see 
more *exciting* things on this list. I think DropScript 
<http://www.mit.edu/people/wsanchez/software/> is one example, and 
CamelBones <http://camelbones.sf.net/> is another.

(DropScript now works the way MacPerl droplets work, passing in the 
dropped files as the arguements, rather than running once per file...)

I think I see some old MacPerl names on this list. I haven't been active 
on it for a while, but when I was, it dealt with using perl on the Mac, 
and sometimes it drifted into general perl questions, and that was 
usually ok. I'd expect the same thing here. Mainly OS X specific 
things... with the 'general perl questions' thrown into the mix.
