in reply to user input without return

If I understand correctly, you want firstInput_value and secondinput_value to be passed in as command line arguments. If so, just access them from within the programme using the @ARGV array:

my ($input1, $input2) = @ARGV;

See @ARGV in perlvar#Variables-related-to-filehandles.

Hope that helps,
