Hello,

test.pl, which start a child command line:
use strict;
system 'cmd';

Following scenario:

cmd             # open an windows commandline
set TEST=ö      # german umlaut "ö"
set TEST
TEST=ö  # as expected, it return the correct value

test.pl         # the perl script open a subshell
set TEST
TEST=T  # bad value!

I think the codepages are responsible for this (Windows cp1252/cp850)
I need exactly this scenario. But, how to resolve this issue?

Thanks!

Walter
