Re^4: Using System command

What is the following code supposed to mean?

system($cmd&&$cmd1);
[download]

Maybe you wanted something like:

my $real_command = "$cmd && $cmd1";
warn "Running [$real_command]";
system($real_command) == 0
    or die "Couldn't launch [$real_command]: $? / $!";
[download]

Observe the difference between

my $real_command = "$cmd && $cmd1";
print $real_command;

# and

my $real_command = $cmd && $cmd1;
print $real_command;
[download]

Thanks a lot for that clarification @gods. It is giving proper results now with the use of quotes "" in the to form the final command. `system("$cmd && $cmd1");` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
