Re: Re: Inconsistent system call from backticks vs system()by Tanalis (Curate) |

The reason for the 2>&1 is to trap STDERR as well as STDOUT, as perlop explains in its examples.
I'm aware that system() doesn't trap output, and I don't intend using it, but unless I can get the backticks to work as I expect them to (system with STDOUT and STDERR trapping) I'll have to think of some other way to do this :/ Thanks for the feedback. -- Foxcub
