Is it possible to create an alias in the shell from within Perl? I have a command I want to use in the shell after my Perl script executes. This command can vary, so what I would prefer to do is set up an alias to execute it.
I realize aliases are created differently in different shells. I will be using Bourne. So far I have tried using system("alias name=xxx") and creating a scipt with the same command in it and executing it thru system. Neither worked, since I could not see the new alias by doing alias -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
