Hi Chuck, Try this:
--- #!/usr/bin/perl my $status = `open -a /System/Library/CoreServices/"Classic Startup.app"`; --- I don't know what this means, though: ../cdTruBlueEnvironment&; Are you trying to cd into that dir? Cheers, Troy
This Perl newbie needs a little advanced help. I'm trying a new Login Hook to start classic, I made the Perl script out of an Applescript. However, and probably not surprising to you, it did not work. It does work in the Applescript but I would prefer to make Perl for use in a hook. Here is the Applescript ################ property appPath : "/System/Library/CoreServices/Classic Startup.app/Contents/Resources/" property appName : "TruBlueEnvironment" tell application "Terminal" do script with command "cd '" & appPath & "';./" & appName & "&;exit" delay 6 end tell ################# After doing some debugging this is what I thought the Perl script should look like. #!/usr/bin/perl /System/Library/CoreServices/Classic Startup.app/Contents/Resources/';./cdTruBlueEnvironment&; I made sure it was executable using chmod +X but each time I test it I get a bad command. What did I miss Any help would be appreciated, Thanks! Chuck Taylor San Juan Unified School District K-12
