(From a discussion of using AppleScript wrappers for running MacPerl 
cgi's more stably.)

Hi Chris, everbody,

If the requests are simply queued within AppleScript, is there a 
realistic chance of queue overflow? Otherwise, this would be incredibly 
useful to me. I'm having problems running multiple cgi's on our sparkly 
new QPQ+ webserver, currently hosting 3 domains. I'm having incredible 
problems getting cgi's to function from MacPerl.

I've found that AppleScript may be limited in some ways, but it certainly 
has its uses. I'm starting to admire MacPerl's access to AppleScript more 
and more. You know, there's got to be some sensible way of connecting 
these two products more closely. Has anyone at Apple ever expressed an 
interest in giving some help on technical issues with MacPerl? We all 
know they use it internally. Could be mutually beneficial. Threads come 
to mind as a rather nice addition that a motivated Apple engineer could 
potentionally contribute to MacPerl...  Not that I'd outright *ask*, mind 
you!  ;-)

Despite some of my aimless griping in the past, I'm starting to find the 
MacPerl group increasingly helpful in my job. Thanks for your time, 
everyone.

Troy
