Hi Anne,
Your script works (on my WinXP instance of ActivePerl anyway) when you
replace the unix-style shebang line with the windoze equivalent, e.g.,
#!c:\perl\bin\perl.exe -w
my $test = shift;
print $test\n;
Or, you can remove the shebang totally and run
perl anne-test.pl

Mike,
I think Ed Summers' message (from Dec. 17th) on the code4lib
I think shift applies to an array, not to an argument.
Try
#!/usr/local/ActivePerl-5.8/bin/perl -w
my $test = $ARGV[0] ;
print $test\n;
to read the first argument (hello) from the array ARGV

Mark Jordan and Leif Andersson have pointed me in the right direction. It
appears to be a problem with the file folder associations.
c:\perl\bin\perl.exe test.pl Hello works, but
test.pl Hello doesn't
Yet it is weird.
