Y'know, that's what *I* thought too. And I swear that it wasn't working
yesterday, or else that's exactly what I would have used. :-)

I had assumed that, since whatever I did wasn't giving me anything
in @ARGV (for all I know, it may have been a typo, it's long gone now),
that droplets acted like pipes would in Unix. :-/

But anyhow, I learned how to make dialogs instead, so all was not lost :-)
