How do you call this perl exe in Dirctor? getNetText()? If so, you can use
netDone(pNetID) on exitFrame to check if it's done.

on mouseUp me
pNetID = getNetText(link to your perl file)
end
on exitFrame
if netDone(pNetID) = true then
if netError(pNetID) = "ok" then
do something
else
do another
end if
end if
end

Hope this help!
