Wooohooo! Thanks for your help. Got it to work.
"My" first perl!
For those who are interested:
Created slimplay.bat with
***
@echo off
perl "C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\My Documents\Perl\play.pl" %1
***
Created play.pl with contents:
***
use Net::Telnet ();
use URI::Escape;
my $f;
my $result;
$f = $ARGV[0];
$t = new Net::Telnet (Timeout => 10);
$t->open(Host => "localhost", Port => 9090);
$t->print("00:04:20:06:3b:85 playlist play ". uri_escape($f) );
$result = $t->getline;
$t->print("exit");
print $result;
***
placed the slimplay.bat in a my windows directory to be on the PATH.
now a command line is
slimplay "My Folder"
My Folder is a subfolder of the music library. This plays all songs in
the folder.
slimplay "c:\my library\my folder\" works too
or slimplay "c:\my library\my folder\my song.mp3" (playing a specific
file)
So my podcast program automatically sends a new podcast to my
squeezebox.

Louis
