Hi,
Thanks for replying.
Two questions and also, I think I may have missed some detail in my question.
(1) When I tried your above code, it always prints 255.
(2) What does >> 8 do? I searched online and was led to the "die"explanation, but couldn't find what >>8 means.
Now, the detail I missed in my initial question was that:
My code is like below:
$output = "Folder/OtherTool arguments_to_the_other_tool. "
I had earlier mentioned only "Folder/OtherTool", so just clarifying here.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
