I've written a perl script that involves a few functions from the command line:

-------------------------
<...a bunch of code...>

chdir "c:\\Lint";
$mycmd = "lin -os(perloutput.tmp) $listfiles";
system $mycmd;

-----------------------------

This perl script runs fine when called directly from the command line.  However, I've 
set it up as a trigger in Perforce to be called whenever some file is submitted.  And 
it doesn't work!  When I comment out these three lines from the script, Perforce can 
submit, but otherwise, it just hangs.  Why doesn't "chdir" and "system" work or what 
alternatives can I try?

Thank you muchly,
Karen
