in reply to start up process without waiting
Your problem description is a little obtuse to me; code is worth 1k words. See How do I post a question effectively?.
One possible solution to your issue as I understand it would be to fork or use threads. Which you pick depends on a lot of particulars of what you intend to do while the files are open and once the files are closed. Using a fork and exec might look like:
$SIG{CHLD} = "IGNORE"; for my $file (@files) { exec $file unless fork; }
#11929 First ask yourself `How would I do this without a computer?' Then have the computer do it the same way.
