you can put Win32::GUI::DoEvents inside your 'server' loop, without Win32::GUI::Dialog() at all. the GUI will not be so responsive as with Win32::GUI::Dialog, but this is the 'best-effort' possible with a single-threaded model. if you wanna go multi thread, you should look at using fork (only with perl 5.6.0) and some IPC mechanism (pipes, sockets, shared memory, etc). cheers, Aldo __END__ $_=q,just perl,,s, , another ,,s,$, hacker,,print;
