If you can run AppleScripts from Nisus you won't need to. Simply call MacPerl to execute a particular script. It's more extensible that way anyway. Otherwise, I don't believe there is any way to have MacPerl run a specific script on startup, and it would in any case be rather inconvenient if you are using MacPerl for other development, since it will try to execute that script every time you launch.
Instructions for calling MacPerl with AS can be found in the "MacPerl.Frontend" file of the old (i.e. before 5.6.1) MacPerl. They aren't great if you aren't very familiar with AS, but if you fool with it long enough you can get it to work ;-) Keary Suska Esoteritech, Inc.
