Re: do script2.pl with parms

Thanks Corion,

I have used system() and `` before, but I think they start another process, is that right?

As a result, would 'do' be more efficient, performance wise? It doesn't start another process, does it?

do does not start a new process. But not starting a second process has implications too. All global variables and modifications that `script2` makes will be visible from within `script1`, which may lead to interesting and hard to debug problems.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
