    I do know how to fork(), I asked whether someone knows of something that would let me FTP several files at once WITHOUT having to fork() explicitely. Parallel::ForkManager is not a good solution to the thing I need, I don't want to fork() for each file to be uploaded. If I end up forking I'll prefork a few worker threads sharing a command pipe and pipe them commands. I've done that sort of thing already.

    I'll post here if I find something.
