[MacPerl] spoofing multiple processes in MacPerl

[kamma@iname.com]

Hello
after struggling for a little while on the issue of MacPerl not
supportting multiple invocations,  as in the case of trying to run
multiple droplets,  I was wondering if it would be possible to have
these processes mimicked in subroutine calls.  For example . . . a text
file could contain parameters to provide control to the droplet.

maybe its a stretch, but could this be a reasonable approach to multiple
processes?

while ( $value <= $limit ) {

    if ($value = something) {
        &start_process_one
    }

    if ($value = another_thing) {
        &start_process_two
    }
}



sub start_process_one {
    do some stuff
}

sub start_process_two {
    do some stuff
}

just some random thoughts
thanks
