Hi!

I want to start a program in perl but i need to keep
the pid to be able to kill it in the future.

For exmple:

system("top &");

this would start "top", but then i wouldn't be able to
identify the process in order to kill it. Is there a
way to do this (other than using fork) ?

Regards,

Bruno Oliveira
