Mac::Carbon includes MacPerl.pm, which has some of the same functions as
the MacPerl version: primarily convenience functions like SetFileInfo,
GetFileInfo, and DoAppleScript.
There's a Mac::AppleScript module that has a RunAppleScript, which is
mostly like DoAppleScript; the only real difference is in the error
value in $@. RunAppleScript outputs errOSAScriptError for every failed
compilation (which is a bit unuseful, but I figure it could be changed
... Dan?). DoAppleScript puts the text of the error in there.
$ perl -MMacPerl=:all -le 'DoAppleScript ("asd"); print $@'
The variable asd is not defined
$ perl -MMac::AppleScript=:all -le 'RunAppleScript("asd"); print $@'
-1753
$ macerror -1753
Mac OS error -1753: (errOSAScriptError)
Anyway, before people started asking, that's the only real difference,
that I can see.
