Hi,

I am having another problem if you can help me:
I have a script with GUI based, when  a button is pressed, it will set
"$Port" and does another script call.
I have three ways to do this but none of them are working to my satisfaction or what
I want to do.

$Port = 7003 ;  can be between 7003 - 700x - this depends on the button
pressed on the GUI

my $command = "perl $test_dir/test-win.pl $Port";
1. system($command); #this freezes my GUI - waits the other script to complete
2. $exp->spawn($command) or die "Cannot spawn $command: $!\n";
# this one works fine if I only spawn once, but won't work for multiple spawns
with diffrent "$Port"
3. exec "$command"; #This one kill the parent process. I want the GUI to be available
to process another test ($Port).

Any suggestion please?

SH
