Hi 

I am trying to write a perl script that can send input from KEYBOARD
and get the output back to the program which should have the
translation stored in a variable.

So far, i have this:

print TERMINAL "Enter some text: ";

while (<KEYBOARD>)  {
   
    last if /quit/;     # stop when 'quit' is entered
    print;              # send keyboard input to the program
    while($reply = <STDIN>) { # get (first line of) reply from program
         
        chop $reply;        # remove trailing "\n" character
        open FILE, ">file.txt" or die $!; 
        print FILE $reply; 
        close FILE;
        print TERMINAL "Response: \"$reply\"\n\n";
    }
    
}
 
print TERMINAL "\nDone.\n";

kill $pid;
exit;

This is just part of the program.  All this does is starts Moses as 
a child process using the exec command with arguments.  
gets input from the KEYBOARD but the problem is the output it prints
everything that moses prints out; so i tried using a FILE but that gets
only the last thing which is  "Finished translating"

Is there a way to get the translation and store it in a variable ?

Thanks,

Vineet
