Dear Folks,
Hear is some interesting task. Please help me out with your ideas. I need to control a perl program from another perl program. Detailed description (example) ######################### Let me say I have a program one.pl that runs with indefinite loop While(1) { Print "hello"; } I need another program, Where I shall type in *s* to start one.pl and *e* to end the program. The second program shall be a CGI-Perl script. I don't want to *kill* the program but I need to *control* the program (one.pl). I have to implement this in *Windows XP*. So commands like "fork" and similar commands did not help me out.. Your ideas and code snippets would be a valuable input to me.
