ok ..... trying this again. Seems my first post did not take so I will try again.
I need to start a java program. So in perl, I have created a command like: my $command = "executable \&"; my $ret = `$command`; exit $ret; This program does not return but rather hangs. If I try this in linux from the command line, it gives me some data, but also does not return to the command line prompt. I have to hit a return in order to get the prompt. Is there a way in perl to simulate this return key entry so that the program will return? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
