Dear All,
I am trying to use Platypus as a wrapper to re-create Perl Droplets I
used to have on OS 9 (made with MacPerl). I got the basic
functionality to work in Platypus 4.1 as 4.2 does not seem to
communicate the address of a dropped file to Perl (see other thread in
this mailing list). I am using the standard Perl installation that
comes with OS X (/usr/bin/perl).
Where I run into problems is with print to STDOUT. On the command
line, the output printed shows up as expected. With the droplet and
the output window activated the window shows up briefly but vanishes
when the script ends. If I pause the Perl script at the end, the
output window stays open but there is no output whatsoever. Same when
I use the HTML option.
???
