Re^3: Passing arguments

Interesting - If I run the script with "Perl" in front of the filename it works, but not if I run it via its association:
H:\>Perl History-Reader.pl arg1 arg2 arg3
Count=3
arg1 arg2 arg3

H:\>History-Reader.pl arg1 arg2 arg3
Count=0

How can I get it to work without having to prefix "Perl"?

A similar scenario came up a few days ago: Piped input read by Windows Vista but not by Windows XP. There's a few links there to further information. The one at the bottom of the thread provided by tye leads to a discussion about setting `PATHEXT` (amongst other things): Re: Out of date over <> and 5.10 (redir). I'd suggest you look at this one first. -- Ken	[reply] [d/l]
