Which is sufficient for simple single command problems, but if you're in
need of more complex stuff, you need an interactive shell. At that
point you're reading 'perldoc perlipc' and start fiddling with
IPC::Open3 and friends and run into all kinds of line buffering problems
('perldoc IPC::Open3' discusses this too). The before mentioned
'Expect' module aims at working around these, but it's been about 2
years back since I last used them, so my information might be outdated.
