if the file type/creator are set correctly, this works with explicit paths:
MacPerl::DoAppleScript(<<END_SCRIPT);
tell application "Finder"
open file "Documents:RSC:Perl:basic:AppleScript:hello world"
end tell
END_SCRIPT
but how do you write relative paths in AppleScript? I mean, let's assume
"hello world" is in the same directory as perlscript containing the
above code?
I'll tackle the Mac::Glue example next.
