I realize that perl is just a (semi) simple scripting language, but I was wondering if there was any way to add a GUI.. or more specifically an option to bring up a dialog box to select a file. If anyone knows of some sources of info, webpages, downloadable manuals, etc.. that would help I would greatly appreciate it. thanks in advance jacob btw.. thanks for all the input regarding my last question about unix line breaks, you were all very helpful, and I received quite a few responses.. now its just a matter of deciding which one I like best and will be easiest to implement. .--- I N T E R N E T S O L U T I O N S ---. | Jacob & Co - http://www.jacobco.com/ | | Email - mailto:jacob@jacobco.com | '------------------------------------------' ***** Want to unsubscribe from this list? ***** Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to mac-perl-request@iis.ee.ethz.ch
