Need Help??

in reply to pass a variable or string to shell command from perl script

"...the shell command..."

TMTOWTDI without shell out:

karls-mac-mini:playground karl$ mkdir 1206287
karls-mac-mini:playground karl$ cd 1206287/
perl -MPath::Tiny -E 'path(q(folderA/folderB/folderC))->mkpath;'

karls-mac-mini:1206287 karl$ find . -type d
.
./folderA
./folderA/folderB
./folderA/folderB/folderC
[download]

If this is what you want.

See also Path::Tiny.

Best regards, Karl
