An easier way to do so could be using the AnyEvent module. In the AnyEvent::Intro there is an example that does something very similar to what you are trying to do. See the Introduction to Event-Based Programming section (instead of using STDIN you can obviously use any file handle you want). It has been implemented in the AnyEvent::Filesys::Notify module. Just my 2¢.
