<div class=Section1>

<p class=MsoNormal>Is there a way to have a Scrip call an external
(command-line) perl script?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I have a special, in house developed, perl script that manages
our on-call rotation and when input is provided, via <stdin>, it sends an
email and SMS of the input to the on-call engineers to let them know something
needs attention.  Is there a way I can implement an OnCreate Scrip to call the
perl script, sending input to it via <stdin>?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks heaps for the assistance.<o:p></o:p></p>
