Re: .bat and perl mystery

t-cmd.pl:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
$|++;


my $cmd = 'hello world.bat';
my @cmd_args = qw/ testing testing 1 2 3 /;
my $exit_code = system( $cmd, @cmd_args ); 
print 'exit code from ', $cmd, ' is ', $exit_code, $/;

and 'hello world.bat':

echo hello world!
echo %1 %2 %3 %4 %5
[download]

does this work? system returns the exit code from the command. use backticks or qx// to get the program's STDOUT into a scalar or array.
