    Thanks for your post. Here's my question though, what exactly do you mean by:

    system('perlscriptpath',@arguments)

    Thanks!

      First you gotta ask you self, what's that look like? I'd assume it's some perl code. So that'd make system a function. Where does this function come from? Say you don't know, you gotta ask yourself, is it a built-in? And then check `perldoc -f system', and then read the documentation. I hope that clears it up for you. You'll also wanna read this, cause it points out various sources of documentation.
