main:
foo c:\perl\bin\perl.exe -h

foo Usage: c:\Perl\bin\perl.exe switches -- programfile arguments
foo   -0octal       specify record separator (\0, if no argument)
foo   -a              autosplit mode with -n or -p (splits $_ into @F)
foo   -c              check syntax only (runs BEGIN and END blocks)
foo   -d:debugger   run scripts under debugger
foo   -Dnumber/list set debugging flags (argument is a bit mask or flags)
foo   -e 'command'    one line of script. Several -e's allowed. Omit programfile.
foo   -F/pattern/     split() pattern for autosplit (-a). The //'s are optional.
foo   -iextension   edit <> files in place (make backup if extension supplied)
foo   -Idirectory     specify @INC/#include directory (may be used more than once)
foo   -loctal       enable line ending processing, specifies line terminator
foo   -mM-module.. executes `use/no module...' before executing your script.
foo   -n              assume 'while (<>) { ... }' loop around your script
foo   -p              assume loop like -n but print line also like sed
foo   -P              run script through C preprocessor before compilation
foo   -s              enable some switch parsing for switches after script name
foo   -S              look for the script using PATH environment variable
foo   -T              turn on tainting checks
foo   -u              dump core after parsing script
foo   -U              allow unsafe operations
foo   -v              print version number, patchlevel plus VERY IMPORTANT perl info
foo   -V:variable   print perl configuration information
foo   -w              TURN WARNINGS ON FOR COMPILATION OF YOUR SCRIPT. Recommended.
foo   -xdirectory   strip off text before #!perl line and perhaps cd to directory
foo

The question now would be, how do I encapsulate the script and *its* command line variables and call it with Perl? Otherwise, it appears Perl may not be executing the script at all...

Thank you :>
