in reply to Executing perl program from another perl program and capturing the output

See system_detached/Win32::ShellQuote for proper programmatic quoting of paths for windows

8.3 names are very very convenient :) for alternatives see Win32::Unicode with Path::Tiny like Re: links in pathnames under Windows 8
