... which seems to work (correctly returns file_3.1.1), but I'm not sure how the nested parenthesis are supposed to be referenced. How would I get what was matched by the inner set? Is this the best way to do this?
Everything is captured in $1, $2, $3... in the order of opening parenthesis, from left to right.
2. How do I set off a new process, not waiting or caring about any return values?
$myApp = "/proj/mycoolexecutable"; $myOptions = "-f -n2 file1 file2"; # execute $myApp." ".$myOptions here, and do not wait for any return values
