As always, Jenda, you absolutely ROCK! This is great! About a year ago I started to add code to the extension so that you could register callback routines for each event (pause, stop, continue, interrogate, etc) so that you could let the extension perform the looping and all your code would have to do is expose callback functions for only those events you are interested in. I simply have not had any time to finish and test it. If you are interested in looking at it.... ;)

If your service only needs to wake up once every N minutes all you need is to tell Win32::Daemon::Simple how to name it, what account to install it under, what parameters you want stored in the registry and a few more options, create the procedure that will do the work and call ServiceLoop(\&doTheJob); exit; The module will make sure your script may be installed with scriptname.pl -install uninstalled with scriptname.pl -uninstall the parameters stored in registry (including the interval) set with -scriptname.pl -parameter=value that your script knows whether it was started from the command prompt, by a doubleclick or by the service manager. It will open a log file for you and allow you to write to it with Log("Message"); # a timestamp will be added LogNT("Message"); # or not It will read the actual values of the parameters and define constants for them, etc. etc. etc. Please let me know if 1) it works for you 2) you find it helpfull 3) you think you would want some new feature 4) if you think something hardcoded should be modifyable 5) ...
