But Ruby's system() doesn't have an option that return control to the
calling script.   See the discussion here
http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=547206, especially the last comment from
the user "BrowserUK".

That's the feature that makes Perl the best choice for controlling
multiple concurrent scripts, especially if they kick up multiple
popups.
