In the interest of clarity and at the risk of obfuscation, you could also
write it thusly (untested):

$evt = AEBuildAppleEvent(
    'core', 'save', typeApplSignature, "c2gf", 0, 0,
    qq(
        '----':[120,105], kfil:type(cwin), drwg:[
            {klne:[10, 10, 105, 10], kths:2, colr:[65535,0,0]},
            {klne:[10, 95, 105, 95], kths:2, colr:[65535,0,0]},
            {krct:[10,20,100,80], colr:[13107,62914,65535]},
            {kfrm:[10,20,100,80]},
            {krct:[15,25,105,85], colr:[65535,65535,0]},
            {ktra:[20,35,100,80], pjst:cent, onst:bold,
                                  colr:[0,24576,0], ktxt:TEXT(\@)}
        ]
    ),$str,
) or die $^E;
