Hm, starting applications is not portable, starting rebols should be? ----------- # use IPC::Open2; $rebol_exe="C:\\Program Files\\REBOL\\View\\rebol.exe"; $pid = open2(\*RDR, \*WTR, "$rebol_exe","-wq test.r"); $|=1; print "begin\n"; while(<RDR>){ print "from rebol:", $_; print WTR "hi rebol ",$_; } print "done\n"; --------- rebol[] print "hello from rebol" print ["hi perl" input] --------- begin from rebol:hello from rebol from rebol:hi perl hi rebol hello from rebol done Volker
