Running Perl Scripts From Another Windows/DOS Directory (repost)by svsingh (Priest) |

svsingh has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question: Sorry for reposting this question. I had some errors in my original question which made it difficult for everyone to understand what I was asking. After reading Reposting Questions, I think it's okay to do this in this case. I hope I'm not causing too much clutter on the boards. Thanks. I'm trying to run some scripts from the Windows command prompt. perl.exe is in my path, and the script is in another directory. Currently, the following command works:
I'd like to add c:\scripts to some environment variable so running the following command would work:
I've tried setting LIB, LIB_PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and PERLLIB to c:\scripts with no luck. Is there a way to do this? I figure if I can do this in Java with CLASSPATH, then Perl may have an equivalent. I would prefer not to change the association for .pl files. Currently running the file directly opens it in an editor and I want to keep that behaviour. Thank you.
