open my $pipe, 'myCommand |' or die "Cannot open pipe from myCommand:
$!";
open my $fh, '>', 'myFile' or die "Cannot open myFile: $!";
print $fh while <$pipe>;
close $pipe or die "Cannot close pipe from myCommand: $!";


Or if myCommand outputs "binary" data.

open my $pipe, 'myCommand |' or die "Cannot open pipe from myCommand:
$!";
binmode $pipe;
open my $fh, '>', 'myFile' or die "Cannot open myFile: $!";
binmode $fh;
print $fh while read $pipe, $_, 1024;
close $pipe or die "Cannot close pipe from myCommand: $!";
