Thanks for your help.
I can't use system because , a nested command in my program is not
allowed, so i try the fork.
I try with waitpid($pid, ) but i didn't know how to tell the waitpid
that waits for the child and don't continue
waitpid($pid,&WNOHANG) > continues execution without waiti
I see a posting suggesting using system() which does sound like a good
solution. If for some reason you need to fork explicitly look at waitpid()
I think it will do what you want.

Seems like you want to use the system command instead.
system PROGRAM LIST
