Title: RE: Cygwin Perl system() Invokes exec() Directly?


Hello again,


Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  That was quick...


>What is your perl summary (perl-V)?


Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  Please see attached...


>What is pwd?


Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  Hey, you've at least got to give me credit for not falling into that trap... :-)


Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  /usr/bin/perl -e '$x=system("wc",".bashrc");$y=system("wc < .bashrc");print"$x $y $!\n";'
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  produces
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  5Â Â Â Â Â Â  14Â Â Â Â Â  93Â Â Â Â Â  .bashrc
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  0 -1 No such file or directory


Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  Thanks again...
