[MacPerl-Modules] Glue: working with reference forms

["Jefferson R. Lowrey" <lowrey@mailbag.com>]

I'm trying to work with the selection that's being returned to me by my
favorite administrative application, netOctopus.

If, in AppleScript, I do
tell application "netOctopus"
     get selection of Computers window
end tell

what I get back is:
record id -1.062730013E+9 of window "Computers" of application "netOctopus"

or
{records from record id -1.062730087E+9 to record id 1.068117901E+9 of
window "Computers" of application "netOctopus"}

If I do:
use strict;
use Mac::Glue ':all';

my $netOGlue = Mac::Glue->new('netOctopus');

my $selection = $netOGlue->get($netOGlue->prop('selection', of
=>'computers_window'));

Of course, what I get in $selection is a hash ref.

So, how do I work with the hashref, to access the individual items in the
selection?
