I don't have time to find out any other potential problems, but you need to
ahve some string following this.  Right now, you have the equivalent of:

  printf "%s some stuff";

When you need:

  printf "%s some stuff", $string;

i.e., if you have TEXT(@), you need:

  $evt = AEBuildAppleEvent('core', 'cnte',
                           typeApplSignature, 'FMP3',
                           0,0, "'----':TEXT(\@),$miscobj, kocl:type(ctbl)",
                           $string) or die $^E;
