That looks like the stuff. Apparently the pod author felt it was
criminal to supply even a very basic example. Thereby creating a
situation where anyone not already a programmer must stumble around
endlessly trying to figure out the syntax to get some use of it.
I really do appreciate those few outlaws who put usefull examples in
the documentation.
Its not clear to me what to do after this:
$pid = open2($wtr, $rdr, 'CPAN::Shell->i');
while(<WHAT GOES HERE>){
print AND_HERE "$_\n";
}
FH is not normally represented as a scalar variable.
What role does $pid play?
