Another Suggestion...
Hilofat, while the reply which you received is correct, it is not quite the one which I would have given you.
I'm sure you've heard the old "print is dead" lecture, but having a bookshelf with some well-selected books is, IMO, very helpful. In your situation, you might want to get a copy of Daniel J. Barrett's Linux Pocket Guide , published by O'Reilly Media. It gives the novice a handy guide to hundreds of Unix commands. It is also a popularly-priced paperback in a compact format.
I hope this helps...

net::dbus::binding::pendingcall
Net::DBus::Binding::PendingCall(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::DBus::Binding::PendingCall(3pm)
NAME
Net::DBus::Binding::PendingCall - A handler for pending method replies
SYNOPSIS
my $call = Net::DBus::Binding::PendingCall->new(method_call => $call,
pending_call => $reply);
# Wait for completion
$call->block;
# And get the reply message
my $msg = $call->get_reply;
DESCRIPTION
This object is used when it is necessary to make asynchronous method calls. It provides the means to be notified when the reply is finally
received.
METHODS
my $call = Net::DBus::Binding::PendingCall->new(method_call => $method_call, pending_call => $pending_call);
Creates a new pending call object, with the "method_call" parameter being a reference to the "Net::DBus::Binding::Message::MethodCall"
object whose reply is being waiting for. The "pending_call" parameter is a reference to the raw C pending call object.
$call->cancel
Cancel the pending call, causing any reply that is later received to be discarded.
my $boolean = $call->get_completed
Returns a true value if the pending call has received its reply, or a timeout has occurred.
$call->block
Block the caller until the reply is received or a timeout occurrs.
my $msg = $call->get_reply;
Retrieves the "Net::DBus::Binding::Message" object associated with the complete call.
$call->set_notify($coderef);
Sets a notification function to be invoked when the pending call completes. The callback will be passed a single argument which is this
pending call object.
