First, your regext could be
$var =~ s/[\s\[\]]/\\$1/g;
Next, you should use two arguments style system calls:
system(/usr/local/bin/programm, args);
Third, you have to analyze a return code of a system command:
my $status = system(...);
print Error [errno = $status]\n if($status);

Yikes, please don't shell out for this, and please don't suggest newbies
