    if (/^Page(\s*(\(([^)]*)\)?)\s*)?\s*:\s*((.*\/)?(.*\.album))\s*$/i) {
        # this entry is actually an album itself. run cthumb recursively.
        my $newdir = ".";
        if (defined($5)) { $newdir = $5; }
        # print "forking cthumb to: $newdir; perl $cthumb $6\n";
        system("cd $newdir > /dev/null; perl $cthumb $6");

You don't want to fork. This will pass control to some external system of
which you have no control off.

        # TO-DO: figure out how we can get info from that forked cthumb for:

Use a recursive main entry point instead. This way, you get to live within
your own box. Now you can pass back any info you want.

Cheers,
Koos
