Re: Can Perl copy informations from screen in CMD?

Maybe the backticks (`...`) or the qx() operator does what you want?

use strict;

my $info = `systeminfo`;

print "I got the following information:\n";
print "***$info***\n";

Or even: `use strict; open (my $info, '>', 'info.txt') or die "info.txt: $!"; print $info qx(systeminfo); close($info)` [download] You can read the screen with Win32::Console->ReadChar but you really don't want to.	[reply] [d/l]
