Bart,
I want to replace an AppleScript with a Perl stand-alone program. The AppleScript
allowed a user to drag and drop an image file on it. It then presented a couple
dialogs asking the user for a small amount of information. The script stores the
information in the file's comment field. Then the script copied the image file over to
a folder on another computer. Do you know if I can do this with MacPerl?
Thanks,
Kathy

Yes. MacPerl. Try the "save as runtime" option.
A problem is any modules your script depends on. In principle, you can
add the modules themselves in the resource fork of the runtime version
of the script. I believe someone once wrote, and made available, a
script that does this for you. Can anybody else fill in the pointers?
