[MacPerl] Re: [MacPerl-Modules] Mac::Glue gone beta

["David Scott" <dscott@cimsoft.com>]

I am unable to run the droplets included in the Scripts folder.  Each of 
them causes my PowerBook G3/292 to crash into the debugger with an "Illegal
instruction" error (Type 3).

I am able to run these scripts if I open them in MacPerl and then run them.

Did the files I downloaded somehow get corrupted or are others seeing this
problem?

Thanks.

Dave
