My complements to John! Those are the standard Horsemen of the trade.

One minor word of caution - Richard Stevens provides interesting
and useful-ish illustrations - and you use to be able to download
code from him, in much the way that you can pick up the code illustrations
from O'Reilly - but you will need to 'tweek them' - since some of
them are 'just wrong' - and some of them are OS specific - but the

        compile
                fix compile error
                Scream Vulgar Euphenisms
                go to compile till the pain stops

loop will help you understand why some of that is simpler in perl
than to try to implement the 'c' code... At which point you will
also understand why you want to do the

        perldoc ipc

http://www.kohala.com/start/unpv22e/unpv22e.html is where you
can find the 'Source code' download....

Happy Hunting!
