Re: [MacPerl] Droplet Problems

[Dan Herron <herron@nats.informatik.uni-hamburg.de>]

For what it's worth, I've been having the same problem for several releases 
of MacPerl now (for at least six months.) Rebuilding the desktop does NOT 
seem to help. The only thing that works is to manually open the MacPerl 
app, and then droplets work OK (or Alpha can find MacPerl, etc.) This is on 
a 7200, running OS8, but previously on 7.6. I never tried tracking down 
extension conflicts, though. (Sorry this isn't an answer, but at least 
you're not crazy...)
