I think you should look at the select() call to check for output from your various children.

May I recommend going to a bookstore and purchasing Stevens' Unix Network Programming? This will have a lot of examples about how to do this sort of thing, coded in very clear C.

    Ya know, I was trying to look at select() for that before, but I'm still having some difficulty finding any good examples that can clearly show me how it's used. I've seen a couple, but they mostly cover with use of sockets. I'd rather like to avoid that route if I can.

    Know of any good resources in Perl for that?
