Is there an easy way to call Perl scripts from within a Perl script and keep the environment variables?

I'm not sure how well this will work on your Window box but you could fork() then exec() your external scripts e.g

@ENV{qw/ one two three /} = qw( foo bar baz );
exec "perl somescript.pl" if fork();

Or you could just do() them in a separate package e.g

{
  package RandomPkgName;
  do "somescript.pl";
}
[download]

The package declaration will avoid cluttering up your current namespace.
