Use the Script Editor File:Open Dictionary command to open the MacPerl 
application. You will see that MacPerl includes:

Required Suite: Events that every application should support
Core Suite: Suite that applies to all applications
Class Application: An application program
Class Window: A window
Class Character: A Character
Class Word: A Word
many more classes of objects and, finally,

MacPerl Suite: Our custom events
 including
Do Script: Execute a Perl script

Hope this helps.
