Okay Macfags Little Perl help here!

I don't know if you Macfags use Geektool but I find it really pleasant to have terminal scripts running in the desktop background.

Now al ittle problem here.
Y'see I want to display the internet bandwidth by using a Perl script.
Problem is, I couldn't get the lastTxRate to display on RATE: /Mb/s

Here's the script

$en0_info = `ifconfig en0 | grep "inet" | grep -v 127.0.0.1`;
$en1_info = `ifconfig en1 | grep "inet" | grep -v 127.0.0.1`;
$airport_info = `/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/Apple80211.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/airport -I`;

if($en0_info)
{
    $en0_info =~ /inet (.*) netmask/s;
    $output .= "ETHERNET IP   : $1\n";

}
else
{ $output .= "ETHERNET IP   : INACTIVE\n";}


if($en1_info)
{
    $en1_info =~ /inet (.*) netmask/s;
    $en1_info = $1;
    $airport_info =~ /lastTxRate: (\d )/s;
    $airport_rate = $2;
    $airport_info =~ /BSSID(.*?)SSID: (.*?)\n/s;
    $airport_SSID = $2;
    $output .= "AIRPORT  STATUS: CONNECTED\n";
    $output .= "         SSID : $airport_SSID\n";
    $output .= "         RATE : $airport_info Mb/s\n";
    $output .= "AIRPORT  IP   : $en1_info\n";
}
else
{ $output .= "AIRPORT  STATUS: INACTIVE\n";}

print "$output";
