Hi Chandru,
Do I need to go to windows_explorer->Tools->Folder Options->File Types
and associating the extension ".pl" with the "perl" executable?
What if the perl is in the D: drive not C:, also do I need to specify ".exe"
Thanks,
Mahdi.

Hi all,
I am working on porting some scripts from unix to windows, and I
noticed that perl ignores the first line of the script, and it seems
I have to run the script like this:
D:\Perl\bin\perl.exe myscript.pl
if I run it like we do on unix:
./myscript.pl
it will search the path and it uses the perl found in the path env
variable.
How can I make it to run exactly like Unix, meaning, just use the
first line in the script?
Thanks,
Mahdi.
Hi Mahdi
The Sha-Bang line (path to the perl interpreter) is supported in
windows also.You need tell the exact path to the perl interpreter.
For example
if you installed in c:\perl\
#!/perl/bin/perl
Windows will search only C: drive for this.
