That happens because in some circumstances I send the script text to be
executed rather than in a file (mostly only when the front window is
dirty) so MacPerl reports the error as occuring in the AppleEvent.  I
thought (but it has been awhile since I looked at the code) that I
replaced it on report to refer to the front window.  I guess not.  It is
only a visual problem, as the right line should be selected.  I'll look
at it.

BBEdit won't parse the #! line.  However, if you hold down the option
key, Run turns into Run... and you can force MacPerl to come to the
front in that dialog.
