They would have to be two separate calls. I used to start 10 to 15
processes at one time using a Perl script to get my setup the way I wanted it.
Then I knew exactly where they were and the order they were in.
So you only need to do;
my $MyStatus1 = system('script1.pl'); # make sure you qualify the
script as much as necessary and not rely on
# paths.
# should check that status was a success which i believe is backwards
from what Perl defines as success(0: good, <> # 0:error)
my $MyStatus2 = system('script2.pl'); # second one to execute.
Wags ;)
