in thread Suppress windows cmd for system command in Perl

Ah, the days of fiddling with start. Why the F*** does Micr$oft name things with overloaded words? I think it's a plan to avoid any possible bad words in every language in the world. Windows. Surface. Access. Excel (well, at least they changed the spelling). Outlook. Office. Explorer. Natural. Publisher. Vista. Visual <anything>. Xbox.
