I also run Activestate Perl on Windows in a DOS box (on Win 2000). First, I open a DOS box. In the DOS box properties (right click on DOS box icon) I have it set up to go right to c:\perl. I have my programs stored in c:\perl\progs. And I have my path variable set to look in c: \perl for the perl.exe program.
Then to run a program I type at the DOS prompt "perl prog.pl" where prog.pl is the name of the text perl program I made with notepad, or any other text editor. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
