E:\Shared\Perl\bin>perl -e "use POSIX ':sys_wait_h';print &WNOHANG" 1 E:\Shared\Perl\bin> Seems portable enough (ActiveState Perl) ;-) Mind you, it'll fail when you try to fork though, or try to reap unless you are using a version of Win32 Perl that supports them (i.e. the threaded one, which ActiveState has).
