Hi John, I discovered something quite interesting this morning... I have 5
different versions of Perl installed (on different machines) - namely:-
1) 64 Studio (Linux)
2) Cygwin
3) Windows XP
4) Windows 7
5) MinGW / MSYS
If I issue your command with either of the first two (Cygwin or Linux) I get
the output that you described. However, on any of the Windows versions I get
this error:-
Can't find string terminator "'" anywhere before EOF at -e line 1.
This is kinda looking like Perl doesn't work very well on Windows - but surely
somebody would have noticed that before now?? However....

Kevin - could you try John's command-line with Strawberry Perl and let us know
the result? If it works with Strawberry Perl I might as well switch to that.
Thanks.
John
