Events in Perl

[Tarscher]

Hi all,

My Perl script should be able to send commands over tcp/ip and read
incomming data also over tcp/ip. The commands should be send
continiously but when an incomming package is detected certain code in
the script should be activated.

Someone has an idea how this is best handled?

Best regards
Stijn

I suggest that you go to http://search.cpan.org/ and search for tcp/ip.
This suggests several candidate modules that do the sorts of things you
want, such as Net::EasyTCP
