Depends on what you mean by launch. I believe you probably want either the system function or the qx// operator (aka backticks). If you want the Perl program to keep running while the "launched" program runs (instead of waiting for it to finish) you should fork and use exec to "launch" it (this is effectively what system does, but system waits for the "launched" program to finish with wait before returning). perldoc -f system perldoc perlop perldoc -f fork perldoc -f exec perldoc -f wait -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
