MacTCP vs OT (was) [MacPerl] calling Perl script from applescript(fwd)

[Randy Bradley <bradley@aux.marc.usda.gov>]

Mark,
  Just my $.02, I really like OT!  The benchmarks I've done for my own test
show that is is much faster that MacTCP.  I havn't done much with OT <-->
PERL yet however.  I did try the "MailIt" Perl droplet.  It sent mail just
fine to a SunOS box, however, it didn't seem to be able to connect to my
A/UX box.  :-{  I didn't pursue the problem any further that yet.
  The brass here wants an intranet and I'm just starting to plan it out.
I'm thinking I'll use QPQ && MacPerl mostly.

Best Wishes,


Randy
