in reply to delay loop

Hi Vasilis!

I think you want to look at waitpid, and look around the monastery for examples of using it.

There are also many CPAN modules that wrap forking off processes, so a visit to http://search.cpan.org may be productive.

(Edit: Introduction to Parallel::ForkManager looks like a good place to start...)
