Win2000Pro Interrogation

by Anonymous Monk
on Aug 12, 2003 at 18:50 UTC ( [id://283302]=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am very new to PERL and am trying to find a way to use a PERL script to see what tasks are running on my Windows 2000 Pro system. My question is in two parts. First is there a way to accomplish this in PERL. Second, if the first is yes, are there any examples available that I could study and/or try out. I thank you Wise Monks for any consideration.

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

    This script ProcessInfo.pl that is a part of the Win32::Process::Info package will do this.

    If I understand your problem, I can solve it! Of course, the same can be said for you.

      Thank you for pointing me at the module that I will need. Does the Perl Monks community always respond so thoroughly to novices in need? You have brought joy to my heart.

      Many thanks for the (exact) guidance I needed. I will study this code and what makes it work. Know that your investment was not wasted on me. I now think that there is hope for a 55 yr. old dog like me to learn Perl (if high quality mentoring like this is available). Thanks again I will not abuse this privilege.
