Guys,
After much trawling google.com, I have found out how to resize and set the
colours for the dos window that your perl script runs in.
Try this:
system (color 17); # Type help color at the dos prompt to see what the
colours are
# the 1 is the foreground colour (white) and 7 is the

Good call! Tk is nice and all, but it's not very pretty. And

Thank you, Trevor.
Your sample is helpful.
However, the timeout value I set doesn't do.
The timeout occurs in 45 seconds regardless of the timeout value.
Apart from this, how can we change the directory of local host, which we can

simple as copying your perl directory. If you are moving the files from
Win32 to Linux, forget about it. You should just reinstall.

Be sure and wait against your sub processes. When theyre done, that will

looking for a little example how to send UDP-Pakets via Perl. I found some
