in reply to redirecting standard output and standard error

IPC::Open2, IPC::Open3.
Though I'm still not sure what is the real difference between the two (despite some syntax stuff).

    • Open2 - STDIN, STDOUT
    • Open3 - STDIN, STDOUT & STDERR

    Although I would personally use IPC::Run3 module which has a much simpler API in my opinion.
