if (@ARGV && $ARGV[0] =~ /^-(\d+\.?\d*)$/) { 
    $timeout = $1; 
    shift; 
} 

die "usage: $0 [ -timeout ] cmd args\n" unless @ARGV;

initscr();   	# start screen
noecho(); 		
cbreak(); 
nodelay(1);		# so getch() is non-blocking

$SIG{INT} = sub { done("Ouch!") };
sub done { endwin(); print "@_\n"; exit; }

while (1) {
    while ((my $key = getch()) ne ERR) {   	# maybe multiple keys
	done("See ya") if $key eq 'q' 
    }
    my @data = `(@ARGV) 2>&1`;		# gather output+errors
    for (my $i = 0; $i < $LINES; $i++) {
	addstr($i, 0, $data[$i] || ' ' x $COLS);
    } 

    standout();
    addstr($LINES-1, $COLS - 24, scalar localtime);
    standend();

    move(0,0); 
    refresh();				# flush new output to display

    my ($in, $out) = ('', '');
    vec($in,fileno(STDIN),1) = 1;		# look for key on stdin 
    select($out = $in,undef,undef,$timeout);# wait up to this long
}

error-- 
perl.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for
the inconvenience.

but when i m trying this code with command line then its ok.

EPIC does not include a full terminal emulator (it just uses Eclipse's Console
view). So code that uses terminal control sequences (like curses) won't
work in Eclipse.

You can install Remote System Explorer, which includes an ANSI terminal
emulator, and then run your scripts manually from within the Terminal view
rather than using Launch Configurations in Eclipse.

thanks.i just want to know is there any other tools that provide Functionality
of full terminal emulator.
