Re^5: How to set up xcode to run perl scripts? [From AppleScript's do shell script]

[luis.roca]

These should help:

• MacOSX Developer Library, Apple Technical Note TN2065 — do shell script in AppleScript
• AppleScript the Definitive Guide by Matt Neuburg (Contributing Editor of TidBITS)
  • There is an example in the book where he builds a little web client (curl) using Perl to parse URLs and titles from a TidBITS search results page.

* FYI: Executing Perl scripts from within Cocoa applications built in XCode IS possible. You would create a new project, add a new file, then under 'Other' select 'Shell Script' (not 'pure' Perl). However, even if you *only* plan to use AppleScript for your Cocoa app, this is a pretty top heavy approach.

Apologies for not being more clear earlier.
