Phil,
I'm not sure what exactly you are asking. Generally, the tool behaves like the MacPerl
application, except that you have a command-line. To run a script, type
perl your_script.pl <enter> (or <cmd>-<return> but not <return>)
Type
perl -h
to see the syntax and explanation of all switches/arguments. Type
commando perl
to get a dialog box for entering switches/arguments (but some are missing here).
There's a chapter about the MPW perl tool in the book "MacPerl: Power and Ease" by
Vicki Brown and Chris Nandor. It's available online for free; point your browser to:
http://macperl.com/macperl/ptf_book/HTML/
HTH.
Best regards,
--Thomas
