to start a process in the background? I'm drawing a total blank.

Processes started with IPC::Open3 are 'in the background', insofar as
that means anything in the context of Perl. They are not connected to
your terminal, and they will run independantly of anything else as long
as they aren't blocking on IO.
What are you actually trying to acheive? Please post a short script that
demonstrates your problem, and explain how it's not doing what you want.
You may also want to look at IPC::Run, which is generally much easier to
drive correectly than IPC::Open3.
