Problem:
-------
}I have a little problem:
}
}I want to call a apple script out of perl:
}
}#!/usr/local/bin/perl
}
}&MacPerl'DoAppleScript(<<'END_SCRIPT');
}tell application "FileMaker Pro"
}        get record 1 of layout 0
}end tell
}END_SCRIPT
}
}and I want to use the data out of the script within perl.
}
}I tried:
}print result;
}print $result;
}print $_;
}
}and nothing works!
}
}Any hint?

Solution:
--------
#!/usr/local/bin/perl

$result = &MacPerl'DoAppleScript(<<'END_SCRIPT');

tell application "FileMaker Pro"
        get record 1 of layout 0
end tell
END_SCRIPT
print "$result\n";


bye
