You'll need to ensure that the output buffer gets flushed. Try: `use IO::Handle; open SYS,"\| windows_exe_file.exe" or die ...; SYS->autoflush(1); print SYS "EXPORT this and that to thisFile.dat"; print SYS "\e"; close SYS; my @data = do{ open IN, 'thisFile,dat'; local $/; <IN> };` [download] With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
