All right, create a sub called "KillProc()" and then put an if statement in that sub. Execute block A if it's Linux, or execute block B if it's Windows. Portable. Done! Why should I bother? I already have a satisfactory solution with Proc::Background, and I wrote that I am happy with it. It's that simple. Why should I even consider to write the same logic myself?	[reply]
