G'day VinsWorldcom,
I got the same as you for 'assoc' and 'ftype' in cmd.exe:
C:\Users\ken\tmp>assoc | find /i "perl"
.pl=Perl_program_file
C:\Users\ken\tmp>ftype | find /i "Perl_program_file"
C:\Users\ken\tmp>
In the registry, I have exactly the same as you (except I have C:\Users\ken\local\opt\strawberry_perl\5_030_000\install instead of your C:\Strawberry).
In your PowerShell output, you show everything output to the PowerShell, instead of the commands starting with perl being output in a separate window. Did you do something else to achieve that?
In cmd.exe, I get much the same as you:
C:\Users\ken\tmp>perl .\test_platform.pl
Platform: MSWin32
Executable: C:\Users\ken\local\opt\strawberry_perl\5_030_000\install\p
+erl\bin\perl.exe
Enter to close window:
C:\Users\ken\tmp>.\test_platform.pl
Platform: MSWin32
Executable: C:\Users\ken\local\opt\strawberry_perl\5_030_000\install\p
+erl\bin\perl.exe
Enter to close window:
C:\Users\ken\tmp>perl test_platform.pl
Platform: MSWin32
Executable: C:\Users\ken\local\opt\strawberry_perl\5_030_000\install\p
+erl\bin\perl.exe
Enter to close window:
C:\Users\ken\tmp>test_platform.pl
Platform: MSWin32
Executable: C:\Users\ken\local\opt\strawberry_perl\5_030_000\install\p
+erl\bin\perl.exe
Enter to close window:
C:\Users\ken\tmp>
So, the answer to Question 1 seems to be to remove the
if ($^O eq 'MSWin32') {
print 'Enter to close window: ';
<>;
}
and run all scripts from "cmd.exe".

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
