[MacPerl-Toolbox] Whither Max OSx and MacPerl



Excuse possibly offtopic question, but how will Perl work with MacOSx.
Is there some layer of the architecture which will let Perl do all the
things that are so easy in Unix and difficult or impossible in MacPerl?
On the other hand, I gather that OSx has some quite different protocols
for doing GUI things. Just curious and wondering why I hadn't seen this
matter mentioned. My fantasy is that Apple realizes that once they have
a Unix operating system, Perl should be made a full partner with
AppleScript as a means of controling the computer. To quote an analogy
once applied to IBM's TSO, I find that in comparison to Perl, writing
AppleScript about as fun and useful as kicking a dead whale down the
beach, but everyone in this group already knows that.
