egzoti4en has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question: Hello guys, I really really need your help fast. I'm doing a project and I have no idea how to do something. Here is the deal. I have a while cycle where i read every key pressed. When i press 'Enter' i want to execute a sub which has a while cycle in it but also there is a sleep in it. Here is some example code :
So my issue is that when i execute sub_example the program freezes and waits for the cycle in the sub to finish. I want it to run in the background and still have the possibility to read from the keyboard and do stuff. Thank you very much for your help i really needed.
