Need Help??

So why not put the commands into a batch file and pipe the output of the commands to a file?

test.bat
--------
dir c:\some\path\ >>c:\path\to\test.txt
[download]

then use the system call and read the output in perl:

system("c:\path\to\test.bat"); 
open(OUTPUT, "<c:/path/to/test.txt") || die "couln't open ...yadda..."
+;
@output=<OUTPUT>;
close(OUTPUT);
[download]

Just my $0.02.
