	... Sounds like an EXCELLENT choice for a FAQ question/answer.
Wouldn't that solve the problem?

	Personally, as a MacPERL lurker and newbie to programming stuff
generally, I have yet to be able to resolve the question that was posed.
It's the kind of question that I would have asked and - even though I've
seen a few responses to such a question - I don't get how to set it up to
work.

	I end up deleting about 90% of the posts to this list, since I
could personally care less about hacking my Mac work with MacPERL. My
personal choice is to use PERL exclusively for CGI kinds of applications.
It's my business - Internet Web site development.

	Just my $0.02    : )
