I have an application that runs on Windows, and it can be accessed through Visual Basic scripting (lots of people embed it in Excel sheets) so I should be able to control it with Win32::OLE (although I'm not very experienced with perl-on-windows). I have another application that runs only on Unix machines, and it's API is available through a custom Perl module.
Is there any simple solution that could allow a Perl program to interface with both of these programs at the same time? I couldn't find an answer on Google or CPAN, and I really don't want to implement my own socket server to do this.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
