You have asked a Frequently Asked Question, and the answer may be found
with

perldoc -q capture

FYI: this newsgroup is defunct. Try comp.lang.perl. misc in the future.

You would do it the way as described in the documentation of the function
that you are using (perldoc -f system, third paragraph, third sentence) or
the way it is described in the FAQ (perldoc -q stderr; perldoc -q "with
systen").
