I'd like to invoke a shell command:
open(CVSOUT, "cvs status -q 2>&1 |") || die "darn: $!";
problem is this mixes stdout and stderr messages.
In a perfect world, I'd like to have a separate filehandle
for the stdout and another for stderr output.
I've tried
open(CVSOUT, "(cvs status | perl -pe 'print \"hi:\";') 2>&1 | ");
while(<CVSOUT>) {
# remove stdout messages to see if it works.
print if ( ! m/^hi:/o );
}
close(CVSOUT);
but the 2>&1 causes stdout/stderr to be a mixed as well.
Yes, I do realize I could redirect stderr to a file, but I'd rather
not do it that way.
Can I temperarily redirect my own STDERR or something ?
Any ideas ?
