Thank you for your remarks. However, it was implied that the optional 
perl step would be helpful to the Sword team, and I wished to help. 
Unfortunately, I lack the expertise to do so, and perhaps others also.

---------------------
Great News!
God created you, owns you and gave you commands to obey.
You have disobeyed God - as your conscience very well attests to you.
God's holiness and justice compel Him to punish you in Hell.
Jesus Christ became Man, was crucified, buried and rose from the dead
as a substitute for all who trust in Him, redeeming them from Hell.
If you repent (turn from your sin) and believe (trust) in Jesus Christ,
you will go to Heaven. Otherwise you will go to Hell.
Warning! Good works are a result, not cause, of saving trust.
More info is at www.esig.beforgiven.info

and use the Internet to spread the Great News every time you email.
