Re: Safely capturing the output of an external program

What are the command line commands you're sending?

For searching for files if that's all you're doing, I like File::Find::Rule.

The command would be something like `kpsewhich cmr10.tfm`. I'd prefer to use `kpsewhich`, the `kpathsea` library it wraps, or whatever other standard methods may exist in TeX for finding files, so as to ensure my script'll find the same files that TeX does; but if all else fails I'll try `File::Find::Rule`, thanks.
