the perl server only outputs some text on the console (or whatever is
connected to the stdout of your gimp process). not seeing anything is,
therefore, not a bad sign ;)

that's ok.

Not that I'd know.

If you want your script to show up in the menus, yes, you need to copy it
to a plug-ins directory.
If you just start it, it should open a dialog. If it is an <Image>-type
plug-in it should enable you to select the image and layer to work on (but
that is not heavily tested).
I assume nothing like this happens in your case?
