Well I do know this. Just as in bash scripting using the backquote (tick) around command runs in a subshell and returns the standard output from the command. Example: irb(main):001:0> `date` => "Thu Dec 18 14:00:09 EST 2008\n" irb(main):002:0> So as long as your Perl script outputs the result to standard out this should work. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
