Well, I'm not trying to find something terribly fancy, I was just trying to save a little bit of work. Really all that I'm doing is trying to put a GUI interface on a simple perl script that's basically used like: 
x12concatenate outfile.x12 infile1.x12 [infile2.x12 ...]

Very, very simple... just picking a list of input files and an output file. It's just something I have to hand off to someone else in the company who really isn't quite savee enough to handle command lines and shell globs. :-)

The funny thing is that it wouldn't take a heck of a lot more work to turn it into a general "run a script" wrapper which could parse a standard command line "usage" description and give a UI for launching the script... well, maybe that would still be a bit of work... but you get the idea. MakeOpt::GUI, or something... heh. Maybe I'll work on that for CPAN after "the Company" clears me to put r.pm up on CPAN.
