Re^3: Using Net::Telnet Module on Windows machine

Skip the comma between the arguments, they are delimited by whitespace. You only need the "s around them if they might contain spaces or tabs.

If the arguments could contain quotes, things start getting messy if not impossible, so avoid that if you can.

Running this may help clarify things.

#! perl -slw
use strict;

my $command = q[ perl -le"print $_ for @ARGV; print 'Enter to exit'; <
+STDIN>" ];

system qq[ start $command A B C "D E" F "G H I" ];
