[MacPerl] PC file names

["Douglas A. Spore" <spored19@idt.net>]

I would like to thank every one for their responces to this question, I was
over whelmed by the number. I had orginally wrote a checklist that used
Fetch to move the files to the unix box. However, everyone from an Airman
to a two star General was using this procedure to transfer the files and
there were problems, and not with the Airmen. I was then asked to come up
with a simpler method, naturally I turned to MacPerl.

My solution was to embed AppleScript into a droplet. The Applescript copied
the files from the disk to a folder on the Mac. Then MacPerl then ftp'ed
those files to the unix box. It worked, but it was a very crude solution,
and took a long time to execute. Larry Prall's script seems to work every
time I've tried it. I will incorporate it into my droplet when I get back
to work. Again Thank You for all the suggestions.
