Hello: Are "Safe Pipe Opens" as described here: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/docs/ActivePerl/5.8/lib/Pod/perlipc.htm l#safe_pipe_opens
supported in ActivePerl? Whenever I try this statement: $pid = open(KID_TO_READ, "-|"); I get an error message saying: '-' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. as if I typed '-' at the command line.
