Using "p4 triggers", I have a simple perl script that takes the

The changelist is *pending* at that point, so the output
of "p4 describe" doesn't include the file list.
So you probably want to run "p4 -c clientname -u username opened"
and look for the changelist number in the resulting output.
You'll find, in the "triggers" section of the public depot,
that the examples use a trick like this to get their work done.
