( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Hello WithABeard and welcome to the monastery and to the wonderful world of Perl!,

interesting finding, I tried it and.. more doubts coming out

PS C:\Users\me> Get-Host | Select-Object Version Version ------- 5.1.19041.1682 PS C:\Users\me> C:\EX_D\ulisseDUE\perl5.24.64bit\perl\bin\perl.exe -e +"print $^O;" PS C:\Users\me> + # no output as you noticed PS C:\Users\me> C:\EX_D\ulisseDUE\perl5.24.64bit\perl\bin\perl.exe -e +'print $^O;' MSWin32 + # ok with single quotes.. meh

But what happens if I cast portableshell.bat coming within my portable strawberry perl?

PS C:\Users\me> C:\EX_D\ulisseDUE\perl5.24.64bit\portableshell.bat ---------------------------------------------- Welcome to Strawberry Perl Portable Edition! * URL - http://www.strawberryperl.com/ * see README.TXT for more info ---------------------------------------------- Perl executable: C:\EX_D\ulisseDUE\perl5.24.64bit\perl\bin\perl.exe Perl version : 5.24.2 / MSWin32-x64-multi-thread C:\Users\me>perl -e "print $^O;" MSWin32 # + good 'ol expected behaviour C:\Users\me> C:\Users\me> C:\Users\me>perl -e 'print $^O;' Can't find string terminator "'" anywhere before EOF at -e line 1. # + no more single quote allowed

More: the powershell console is no more a powershell console! Get-Host gives me command not found

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
