in thread Hiding the DOS window..

To change the associations I just right-click on a .pl file and select open with... Choose program... and select Perl.exe or Wperl.exe.

I am totally guessing here, but this might be related to your problem. That method of setting up associations does not expose all the details to you. You might ought to look under View->Folder Options->File Types to see the details of how the file association is set up. It is quite possible that the association is not getting set up 100% correctly. If you've never worked with the File Types settings before, consult your local Windows guru.


"In adjectives, with the addition of inflectional endings, a changeable long vowel (Qamets or Tsere) in an open, propretonic syllable will reduce to Vocal Shewa. This type of change occurs when the open, pretonic syllable of the masculine singular adjective becomes propretonic with the addition of inflectional endings."  — Pratico & Van Pelt, BBHG, p68
