in reply to How can I step through a Perl program using Padre?

When I click the "Bug" button a DOS window titled "padre.exe -d <PROGRAM_NAME>" appears, and within the DOS it says "Press any key to continue".

When I press a key both the DOS window and the Padre display close.

    Hi,

    When I click the "Bug" button a DOS window titled "padre.exe -d <PROGRAM_NAME>" appears, and within the DOS it says "Press any key to continue". When I press a key both the DOS window and the Padre display close.

    You should ignore that window and only deal with Padre

    You can see screenshots of what it looks like at http://padre.perlide.org/features/perl5-debugger.html

    Do you see the same thing?

    You can disable the "DOS window" if you go to
    Alt+Tools
    Preferences
    Language - perl 5
    Script Execution
    [   ] Use external window for execution
