Re: Passing arguments

Sounds like your .pl association doesn't pass arguments. From a console, run

assoc .pl
ftype perlfile           Replace "perlfile" with whatever .pl returned
[download]

The ftype should look like

"D:\Perl\bin\perl.exe" "%1" %*
[download]

If not, fix it.

ftype perlfile="D:\Perl\bin\perl.exe" "%1" %*
[download]

Which is why real programmers don’t use Microsoft Windows. `;-) ;-)` “I never realized it could be so complicated* to design a system that doesn’t work ...”* `;-) ;-)` (All given merely in the gentle spirit of a little late-night fun...) `cat flames >/dev/null`

Unix GUIs do file associations too. This is actually a good feature. Whatever created the association is at fault here.	[reply]
