ok,
i'll tried it with fork()... (looks like active perl doesn't support
Thread.pm)
the problem is that i have a process that needs some time, if i just call it
the gui freezes while the process works...
how can i prevent this? thought it would be a solution to make a thread and
wait for it, but this freezes the window too (right? didn't test it)

so, can someone give me an example how to solve this problem?
would be great

thanks and by
