    I have absolutely no clue. :-) But, I bet if you wander around the Win32:: namespace on CPAN, you'll find a few clues. Also, I suggest googling around a bit.

    If you're implementing this on Windows, Perl may not be the best solution. I'd take a look at JScript, VB, and/or WinScript for alternative languages that might have better API support. You might have to dip in C/C++ and/or Java for some of the hardware stuff.
