That works -- thanks -- but what about the output from external programs I mentioned (pscp.exe) that I run with backticks? Also noticed that running "make_path($dir, 1)" from File::Path seems to crash the program.

Well, that is what backticks do, they accumulate all output until the process is finished, then they return control to your program see IPC::Run3/Can I use a window handle in more than one process? Also noticed that running "make_path($dir, 1)" from File::Path seems to crash the program. OK	[reply]
