If using a different shell isn't a solution for you maybe there's a way to get the file descripter from a Perl handle and use fcntl with F_SETFL and O_NONBLOCK to make C do what you want. I've never tried this myself. -- Mike Small [email protected] _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [email protected] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
