Re: same script acts differently when run as a file vs one-liner

cmd as in cmd.exe windows like me? See Re: 'perl -le' not working on the command line

 $ perl -MO=Deparse -p -w -e 's/(\w+)/\u\L$1/'
Useless use of a constant (s/(\w+)/\u\L$1/) in void context at -e line
+ 1.
BEGIN { $^W = 1; }
LINE: while (defined($_ = <ARGV>)) {
    '???';
}
continue {
    die "-p destination: $!\n" unless print $_;
}
-e syntax OK

$ perl -MData::Dump -e " dd\@ARGV " 's/(\w+)/\u\L$1/'
["'s/(\\w+)/\\u\\L\$1/'"]

thanks for the quick reply. however, I didn't really get much use from your code. I read the thread about cmd.exe turning `'print $something;'` into `"'print" "$something;'"` but what's your code supposed to do?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

`perl -p -w -e 's/(\w+)/\u\L$1/'` [download] mavili: What Anonymonk (and, in particular, the given link – did you take a look at it?) wanted to point out is that you are not using the proper command line argument quoting for the Windows command line processor (single-quotes would be appropriate for *nix). Try either `perl -p -w -e "s/(\w+)/\u\L$1/"` (using double-quotes) or, because there are no embedded spaces in the CLI argument and thus no need for quotation, simply `perl -p -w -e s/(\w+)/\u\L$1/` instead.
