Thanks for the reference. Yes, I have read through its documentation before. It is very powerful. No, I have not played with it. In my opinion, however, there's something about its syntax and setup that leaves me wanting. I get confused wrapping my mind around `(\$in, \$out)` and the various ways of specifying handle references for the commands. It's probably due to my inexperience. Let me look into IPC::Run some more.	[reply] [d/l]

And while we're at it, have a look at IPC::Cmd. It seems more actively maintained and equipped with a more intuitive (for some) API. Bye PetaMem All Perl: MT, NLP, NLU	[reply]
