Hi Chris, Thanks for your reply.
The OS in which I am running perl is on Windows 2000. Further, I dont was to switch to java. Basically, there are set of independent activities which I should be performing everyday as a backup. Now presently I have one perl script which does this in sequence. This takes longer time to finish (almost 8 hrs). Now I wanted to use threads and perform the tasks in parallel so that it finished sooner. While doing this, to know which thread did what and what was its error/output messages, I wanted to run them(threads) in separate shell window. Hope I am a bit clear this time in explaining what I wanted. Any thoughts? Appreciate your help. Thanks and regards BTR Naidu On 2/7/07, Christopher Fowler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

You could create a SWING app that has 10 tabs. Each tab is a HTML TextPane that gets updated but its own thread. This would cut down on the clutter on the desktop. If you wanted to stick with Perl maybe the Perl-TK API has similar functionality.
