[MacPerl] Apple Events question + another

[John Delacour <JD@tallorno.net>]

1.
Can someone please give an example of how Send Data «event McPLDATA»  in the MacPerl dictionary is used?

Send Data: Send data to a remote controlled Perl script
	Send Data  string  -- Standard Input
		[input  record]  -- further input streams.
	[Result:   string]  -- Standard Output


2.
What is the fastest way to filter input to output text in another character set, not necessarily using two tables of the same size.  For example, how would I get "café" from say "cafe/" or "cafÈ" or  "café".  I have tried using three arrays to convert using an intermediate set using loops, but this is hopelessly slow and obviously not the way to go about it.
