Hi All,
But only a little bit off topic.
Windows 7 Pro, SP1, 32 bit
I created a Perl6 program for a customer. I created a shortcut
to it on the desktop. But Windows won't allow me to to copy
it to the task bar as perl6 is a batch file.
Looking at google, the trick of creating
cmd /c perl6 program.pl6
on the desktop and dragging it to the task bar, did not
work either
How do you guys do it?

Oops. Did I say that name out loud? :'(
Worse yet, it is the 32 bit version of that OS, whose name
I shall not mention. And the 32 bit Perl 6 dates back to 2016.
And oh holy molly it is buggy, so I am constantly working
around things that work perfectly in my current Perl 6
version on Fedora.
I could code it in Perl 5, but where is the fun in that?
I gots to have my slurp and spurt! (I am surprised that
those two even work in that old version of Perl 6.)
Try making a shortcut to the .pl6 file, then you can change the
icon of the shortcut, and put that in the task bar. I don't remember the
details but it ought to be enough to find it via web search.

That is what I did. I can create short cuts to it
anywhere, except the task bar.
