However, I just get execution errors (or "no such file errors" if I
use 'quoted form of shellscript'). I can't find any information
anywhere on what the proper syntax should be.
if you're using the routine << do shell script "perl " & path.pl >>,
then your script must be in path.pl complete with shebang + UNIX line
ending.
Try something like this:
set fU to "/tmp/temp.pl"
set f to fU as POSIX file
set shebang to "#!/usr/bin/perl" & (ASCII character 10)
set _script to shebang & "use IMDB;
$imdb = IMDB->new();
%res_1 = $imdb->query('title' => 'star trek');
print \"-> $_ = $res_1{$_}\" foreach sort keys %res_1;
%res_2 = $imdb->query('title' => 'pulp fiction');
print \"-> $_ = $res_2{$_}\" foreach sort keys %res_2;"
open for access f with write permission
set eof f to 0
write _script to f
close access f
do shell script "perl " & fU
