Hello,
I need to start an external program from my perl
script. This program will need to run in the
background so my script can continue doing other
things. It also still needs to notify the program
when it terminates.
I would appreciate any help on how I would do this.
My environment is Windows NT 4.0, with Activestate
perl 5.6.1. I'm also not sure how Windows runs a
background process, so any tips there would be
appreciated.
Lastly, I've been monitoring this list for a few weeks
now. It has been extremely helpful in getting me
started with Perl. Thank you to everyone involved.
Tina Ouellette
