in thread Win32::Gui + Threading?

I think prehaps your behavior is caused by buffering of the input, then. Is the problem fixed when you close TO_P (after sending the exit command) or when you send exit\n instead of exit? (Which may be enough to convince perl that it should return from the <FROM_P> which I think it's not doing. But it'd be nice if you'd to have the forked process to print some stuff (to a file or STDERR) so you can tell where its hanging...)

Oh... yep, that did it... Could I use something similar to that first pipe() command to get data back from the 2'nd process? Something like: `pipe(FROM_C, TO_P) or die "pipe: $!"; select(((select(TO_P), $\| = 1))[0]);` [download] ??? `-----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.12 GIT d- s:++ a--- C++++ UL P+++>++++ L+ E- W++>+++ N !o K- w+ O---- M-- V-- PS PE Y- PGP t++(+++) 5(+++)++++ X R+@ tv+ b+++ DI+ D- G e->+++ h! r-- y- ------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------` Translate "Weird things happen, get used to it."

pipe(FROM_C, TO_P) or die "pipe: $!";
select(((select(TO_P), $| = 1))[0]);
