in reply to Small Problem with running Perl Scripts in Windows

Another solution to the problem is to tweak the command associated with your perl scripts. By default this looks (something like) this

perl_script=e:\perl\bin\perl.exe "%1" %*

If you modify this to

ftype perl_script=%comspec% /k e:\perl\bin\perl.exe "%1" %*

Then the cmd window will remain once the script terminates.
