Re^4: pipe to less crash

The way my program works is that the user sees a list of files and they can choose one and it will open with less, but then once they exit less, I want them to be brought to the program.

I'm sorry that I was unclear in my response. In your code, you use the following statement: `close LESS or die "can't close: status = $?";` [download] ... but you do not seem to want your program to die. So, a solution is to not call die instead: `close LESS;` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
