Sadly, even though I wrote the programs, the code isn't mine to share.

But they are pretty much vanilla POE. One even uses POE::Wheel::Run to control an external process--PWR had problems on Win32 in the past.

The later program was finished in 2007. It's still running now, last system reboot was in December, caused by a crappy USB serial port driver.

The samples in the docs and on the POE site are a good starting place. I also recommend the Programming POE presentation--it's a bit old, but has good info.

I hope that this info makes up a bit for being unable to share.
