in thread Perl shell with input and output terminal

Ok, this is much much better than what I have :) But I really don't need so much functionalities. moreover, as I said, creating a shell is not so much of a problem. Bigger issue is to have a shell where you can write commands in the left side of your terminal and se a real-time output in the right side. I just thought there is some wrapper or screen emulator or something like that.

Thank you :)

Corion's solution is quite nice, but I worry about safety of such an approach. Open solutions an pipelines ar eusually safety hazards (This is my personal opinion!!!)

    Let's see if we can't sway your opinion. Please provide a specific example of a situation where one process writing to a file and another tailling it (just as in Corion's post) could lead to anything hazardous. Describe the specific hazard as you see it. Thanks.
