in thread How to execute multiple commands through perl script

I need to use the last line test=... on a separate line after the python Pyscript... line has executed. This is what I need to do

cd c:\\PerlExamples && python Pyscript.py server=server_name.com #The above part can be in one or two lines - it doesn't matter test=$test_name,$file_name #This has to be on separate line

I suppose my question is, is there a way for me to give carriage return in this system... command?

    Use a piped-open like this:

    my $pid = open CMD, '| cmd /k' or die $!; print CMD 'cd c:\PerlExamples'; print CMD 'python Pyscript.py server=server_name.com'; print CMD 'test=$test_name,$file_name'; ...
