hi everyone,i am a novice to the perl and i want towrite a perl program to redirect 
anotherprogram's STDIN & STDOUT to pipes,it's possible or there are source 
examplesexist?thanks,maxchen

to redirect STDOUT:

 open IN,"programname |" or die $!;

 you can then read from it as any other normal filehandle.

to redirect from STDIN:

open OUT,"| programname" or die $!;

you can then write to it using print OUT,"what you want to wrtite";

In both cases, note the use of |.

perldoc perlopentut for more.

cheers
