While I have several unresolved issues with fork on Windows I think they
biggest problem with your script is that the fork logic backwards.
Something like the following will give you better results.
my $pid;
if($pid = fork()) {
print(FOUT running ($pid)\n);

Is there something obviously wrong here when the user tries to give an
offset
In my experience Perl on Windows does not handle the (Program = \foo)
case well at all. I have had better luck with the (Program = sub {
foo() }) case, but even that seems a bit iffy to me.
I'm still waiting for someone who can explain why sub{ foo() } sometimes
works when \foo doesn't.
