It would seem to my that we remain a victim of vestiges of DOS. This makes
life really difficult for those of us trying to rationalize using NT as a WWW
server platform. Am As a Microsoft SP my hand are tied but one could always
hope for fully support alternative shell to cmd.

Subject: The -S switch and associations.
Will the next release of Perl for Win32 support the associations
(assoc .pl=perl) with the -S switch?
Currently it complains it can't execute a script.
C:\users\stuart> perl -S foo.pl"
Can't execute c:\users\stuart\bin/foo.pl.
Should it really care? Shouldn't it just find the script and read
the lines.
Just typing foo.pl does work ( But then I can't pass command line
args :-( ).
Is it me, or is this whole start up issue on NT bogus? The pl2bat is a
lucky hack, and the .pl=perl association only half works. I just want
to startup my scripts and pass command line arguments. Why all the
hassle? (Just Venting)
Thanks,
Stuart
