Hi Perl folks, I am trying to write a wrapper script around an executable file so that I am able to better control the results of other programs calling that file. I have written a short and easy script that collects the options in a log file, and then execs the original command (just for testing). #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; my $datestampe = localtime(time); open LOG, ">>/tmp/options.log" or die "Can't open /tmp/options.log: $!"; print LOG "$datestamp: Command and options: $0 @ARGS"; exec( '/usr/bin/original-executable', @ARGS); However, I have found that some open the original file in a pipe. Is there a way I can view the contents of what is being sent through the pipe?
