Thanks for your vote of confidence, cybear...
Unfortunately, from my inexperienced point of view, basic and signal handling are mutually exclusive - it's pretty complex. I need a few more attempts and a little more time reading the docs before I'd consider writing a tutorial on something that in the Real World often gets enough chapters to make its own book.
Until then, read perlipc and perlfork, Chapter 16 of the Camel, and the chapter(s) on signal handling in the nearest System Programming for Unix book. I'm going to go through them again (it's been awhile) and see if I can't grok in fullness.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
