update: Here is a start

package ReadOneWriteOtherone;
use strict;
use warnings;
sub TIEHANDLE {
    my( $self, $in, $out ) = @_;
    $self = bless { in => $in, out => $out}, $self;
    return $self;
}

sub PRINT {
    my $self = shift;
    $self = $self->{out};
    print $self @_;
}

    
sub READLINE {
    my $self = shift;
    $self = $self->{in};
    readline $self;
}

sub CLOSE {
    my $self = shift;
    close $self->{in};
    close $self->{out};
}

1;

package main;

unless( caller ){

    tie *BLOG => ReadOneWriteOtherone => \*STDIN, \*STDOUT or die "Cou
+ldn't tie BLOG : $!";
    print tied(*BLOG),$/;
    print tied(*BLOG)->{in},$/;
    print tied(*BLOG)->{out},$/;
    print "Enter some input buddy and hit enter : $/";
    print BLOG "You entered: ", scalar <BLOG>;
}

__END__

$$ perl ReadOneWriteOtherone.pm
ReadOneWriteOtherone=HASH(0x1abf1a4)

Enter some input buddy and hit enter :

Okay I get the gist of that, but as it was with the 'ReadOneWriteOther.pm' I was getting an error:

Can't locate object method "FILENO" via package "ReadOneWriteOther" at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Net/Telnet.pm line 560.

So I figured I had to just add a 'sub FILENO' in and choose to return either 'fileno $self->{in}' or out, but neither worked. Both get the error:

stat() on unopened filehandle TERM at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/Net/Telnet.pm line 578.

... and then when I open the shell with Net::SSH::Perl, it uses STDIN and STDOUT on the terminal as before. So I get the idea, but I'm stuck again. Any further help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Scott

Just add AUTOLOAD to handle not implemented methods:

sub AUTOLOAD {}

Take a look in perltie to implement all the other methods if you really want to make a full IO redirection through tie.

Here's a list of the other methods:

sub PRINTF {}

sub READ {}
sub READLINE {}
sub GETC {}
sub WRITE {}

sub FILENO {}

sub STORE {}
sub FETCH {}

sub CLOSE {}
sub DESTROY {}
