Question : Launching new Perl script -and- DoEvents?

Hello,

I've been using Perl from some time now, however I cannot seem to find a command or statement similar to VB's DoEvents. Is there something like this in Perl? Or... :/

Also, how can I launch a completely new Perl script from another Perl script. Note that I'm NOT using Perl as CGI, but I'm running the script in Perl directly. I've tried messing with system() but so far no luck. Also, if this is possible, can I pass it arguments? (e.g. perlscript.pl -argument1 -argument2)

Thanks in advance :)

#Or more simply
system($path,$arg1,$arg2,@etc);
