mantra2006 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hello Monks I am working on a script which was written way back in 1997. The script looks for a file and signals alarm that file has arrived in a specific time or file hasn't arrived in that time... on unix machines the alarm function is working where as in Win32 systems the alarm function is working ActiveState listed in its unimpleneted list of activities...
My question is what is the best function to replace with alarm in Win32 machines...or ideas to implement the same functionality..
Thanks & Regards Sridhar
