are these xml files local? if all you're doing is text manipulation, why don't you just stay native to director? why use perl at all? not that it's any my business - your prerogative if you want to use perl.

is that really the case? if the solution involves ASP, you're probably right, you need a webserver. but php, perl, and the like are actually separate executables that you could include (1. the distribution licenses are pretty loose if i remember, and 2. all the perl executables and lib that come in the distro i have are 13MB - good enough to include on a cd)
A quick question: How will Director know when perl has completed execution?
Background: On click of a button, I will execute a perl exe (win32) to manipulate an XML file and once it is done, I display the XML file within Director.
Any pointers will be highly appreciated.
