Re: win32, threads, and filehandles, oh my!!

Try using threads->create in place of async:

print "Converting $tiffpath to $pspath\n";
# my $thread = async { Tiff2PS($tiffpath, $pspath) };
my $thread = threads->create (\&Tiff2PS, ($tiffpath, $pspath));

For future reference. `async()` is just a procedural alias for `threads->new()` `## From threads.pm sub async (&;@) { unshift @_,'threads'; goto &new }` [download] And `create()` is just an alias for `new()` `*create = \&new;` [download] Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

The "good enough" maybe good enough for the now, and perfection maybe unobtainable, but that should not preclude us from striving for perfection, when time, circumstance or desire allow.
