in reply to communicating with a perl script from a windows App

One of the solution will be to use a socket communication. Open a socket on the server and wait for an incoming connection. When a client start it connect to the socket and can advertise/send information to the server. There is a good example of socket communication in "Learning Perl".

    That'd be the deprecated editions of Learning Perl. We didn't carry that forward in the new one, since most people who are just learning Perl aren't going to be writing low-level socket calls. {grin}

      Well I must admit it's an old one from 1997... I should update it soon, but the french version is always late for the new one...
