in reply to running perl scripts from other perl scripts.

Read How can I capture STDERR from an external command?. HTH. 

perl -e 'print "How sweet does a rose smell? "; chomp ($n = <STDIN>); 
+$rose = "smells sweet to degree $n"; *other_name = *rose; print "$oth
+er_name\n"'

    If the original poster wants to include Win9x in their definition of Win32, then the methods you link to won't work for them.

    The most portable way I know to do this is: 

    use IPC::Open3;
my $pid= open3( "<&STDIN", *OUT, *OUT, "command" );
my @errors= <OUT>;
close OUT;
my $status= waitpid $pid, 0;
