I will be interested in seeing how this works.
Since Perl is my favorite, I was just thinking today about something like "mod_perl" for Apache, but for PD-- a persistent Perl program which PD can pass of certain tasks to.
Things like complex data structures (associative arrays, or multi-dimensional arrays) and regular expression parsing I find is so much easier in Perl (but I'm only about 1.5 years into PD, so there are likely many cool tricks I haven't learned yet).
I'm thinking about implementing my Chord Library gizmo in Perl, but I don't want to pay for the overhead of invoking the Perl compiler with each [shell].
For now, I'm considering just starting my Perl agent as a daemon, and communicating to PD via local sockets...

why not using tcl ? it's a widely used scripting language and is already used in pd environment
