You could make a global UserTag to do this, which is probably the most 
correct way once you have working code. In the meatime you can do this in 
interchange.cfg:

        AllowGlobal yourcat

(restart Interchange) ...and then add global=1 to the opening [perl] tag, 
and you should be able to develop and test your code with in-page perl like 
you were trying to.
