Re: Re: How to dup $FOO to STDIN

#1 doesn't meet the criterion of duping a scalar filehandle (which I need because this is hapenning in parallel forks).

#2 Works!

#3 I had looked at perlipc but found nothing for dupping STDIN or scalar filehandles.

Thanks

PS> "shouldn't not use caps" so I should then? ;-) Yeah wog has gotten on me about that too. I've cut back, but am still using for "globals" or effectively just scalar filehandles, so they lok like regular filehandles.

Already figured you wanted to do something with childs or the like, that's why I added the ipc stuff. It actually describes named pipes, and the use of open for ipc. On the caps: :-) && You shouldn't. Fileglobs are in caps because they are really special. Filehandles are less magical.	[reply]
