This sort of situation can be dealt with with "back ticks":

foo.pl `bar.pl`

This is nice in that you can probably do this too:

foo.pl a b c `bar.pl` d e f g h `bar.pl x y z` i j k

A popular GNUism might be helpful here as well. Many GNU programs use an option command line argument of "--" to indicate that input should be taken from STDIN instead of from other command line arguments.

The back ticks solutions works well. Thank you. I will see about modifying my code to get smart about -- arguments. Again, thanks.
