Re: [MacPerl] MacPerl files creator code

[Maria Shugars <maria.shugars@sterling.com>]

Sorry, All. I found what I was doing wrong -- I was checking the file in
the temporary directory after it was uploaded instead of in the *original*
directory. Essentially, it had already been converted to an MPS creator
because the uploaded file is a *copy* of the original file and the copy was
made by the script. I've got it working now!
