I have a script that I want to fork a child process that will start an
application, e.g. notepad. Once notepad is closed I want the child
process to send a signal to the parent. How would I do this in Windows?
my $pid = fork();
defined ($pid) or die "Can't fork: $!";
if ($pid > 0){exit};
print "my PID is $$\n";
`notepad`;
while (1) {
socket_listening();
}
