Have a look at the following docs, perldoc perlipc perldoc IPC::Open3 perldoc IPC::Open2 perldoc perlopentut See if they help. In general the above will allow you to avoid messing with setting up your own pipes, etc. but still allow you to read/write to a process. If they don't work you can get lower level but start there first. http://danconia.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
