Hi all, Still thinking about this one. I have:
my $backup = system($rdiff, @args); # Send e-mail with a few details for success and failures # Success if ($backup == 0) { blah } I want to be able to stick the ouput of the $rdiff command into a strong, as well as get an exit code for it? Is this a backticks one? Gavin. -- Just getting into the best language ever...
