Re^2: How to pass directory variable using IPC::System::Simple

I honestly just used the Simple module just cuz someone told me to do so... literally.
That's all I'm trying to do and I have no idea how to call the said command line without the module (*screams help*)
Thanks for the POSIX module! I'll look that up for sure

Hi bill5262, I made a mistake in my node, which I've now fixed, apologies! The line "`use IPC::System::Simple;`" should be "`use IPC::System::Simple 'system';`", because otherwise it has no effect, meaning that the default system function is called instead of IPC::System::Simple's version of `system` which has better error handling.
