Okay, I am fairly new to programming, so I apologize if I am asking a stupid question.

I have been given a program written in C that I have a large number of files to enter as input. I am trying to write a Perl script to automate everything, but am having issues.

In Perl, I use the backticks to call the program as well as the input and output. I.e. my$results = `my_fave_program $input $output_path`; The problem is, when I run the C program from the command line, it asks a series of questions that require the Return key to be hit before moving on to the next question. HELP. I do not know how to write this into my code!
