well... i understood your comment and it is clear that windows systems don't
use forking, but under w32 processes can have child's (children ? :) but i
can't understand why are functions that need forking (???) enabled? ...
but after all this -forking- is not the issue here ... the real problem is
that I MUST USE external executable's and i can't see a way to do that ...
must i really take a shot, using PERL ?
camooon ...
