that still is an XY problem. you are asking for X (know where perl is 
being spawned) when your actual problem is Y (getting the log file to 
pop up). they are not the same problem. if you just need to see the log 
file, run a tail -f command in a shell window and it will show you all 
the new log stuff as it happens. that is not a perl problem.

thanx,
