No changes needed on the Windows platform. The Hobo script in the prior post works. Append the script with the missing subroutines found here.

sub the_task_I_gave_cain_to_do { ... }
sub the_task_I_gave_abel_to_do { ... }
sub the_task_I_gave_seth_to_do { ... }
sub the_task_I_gave_noah_to_do { ... }
sub the_task_I_gave_shem_to_do { ... }
