I recently wrote a little script in MacPerl that changed a bunch of file names to a specific name format and creater. What I found was, I could only drop a maximum of 32 files on the script! Does that magic number 32 of the MacOS come into play here or is this in MacPerl. If I dropped more than 32 files, none would be processed.
