in reply to Re^2: Windows strawberry perl Getopt::Long fails
in thread Windows strawberry perl Getopt::Long fails

#!C:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe first line and running "MLnch.pl -l prd,ift" fails,but no error..
You probably want to read perlrun and #! and quoting on non-Unix systems especially.
You might as well still use #!/usr/bin/perl on window OS. It works for me.

If you tell me, I'll forget.
If you show me, I'll remember.
if you involve me, I'll understand.

    Works, but could I eliminate the "perl \strawberry\c\bin\":
    C:\>perl \strawberry\c\bin\MLnch3.pl -l diebelr -s dynprod,aimprod
    Getopt fails:
