in reply to IPC Help

Your quixotic attempt at IPC using "system" and the file system is headed in the wrong direction.

Please look at IPC::Open3 to see how to do it right.

    I had tried Open2 - which as I understand it, is just like Open3 without the error filehandle - with no success. At this point, I'm looking for a point in the right direction, or perhaps some insight as to how I should go about actually using IPC::Open(2|3)
