Shell scripts not working since 3.1

Using your script as written (except changing the path to perl), I get the following in my logs:

line 3: syntax error near unexpected token `OUT,'
line 3: `open(OUT, ">>/tmp/perl.log");'

I suspect you have introduced spaces in front of the lines during copy/paste. Please remove these and the script should run.

Just wanted to check if you have been able to reproduce the issue with the sample Perl script (after removing the spaces).

I've identified an issue with external scripts. There should be a fix in the next release.

You can also try turning that into an embedded script (just set perl as the shell). The current bug should not affect that.

I have the same issue with a Ruby-Script. Version 3.1.1, downloaded today, doesn't fix it. Scripts still exit with error-code 2, it's not able to find the shell. The first line in my script is:

#!/usr/local/bin/ruby

Version 3.1.2 is out and should fix this so try updating and reporting back.

With Version 3.1.2 my Perl scripts work again from Hazel, thanks!
