    This goes a good bit of the way toward closing bug 3092 (though
    untested: http://bugzilla.abisource.com/show_bug.cgi?id=3092).

    The idea is since we have PERL scripts and plugin support, why not have
    PERL plugins? This could be a good way to integrate something like
    Andrew Dunbar's Linguaphile into Abi on startup, perhaps even adding
    menu entries or a toolbar icon. The idea is that these scripts could
    register menu actions and create EditMethods eventually.

    This fix is entirely unix-based but the concept is simple. I'm not sure
    how far PERL script handling got on non-unix platforms, but this is sure
    to break any that did work. Sorry.

    Dom
