Dear Bug Team!
on my Windows machine, I have ActivePerl installed and a .pl script
extension associated with it, so that I can just type ``script.pl'' on the
command line and have ``perl script.pl'' executed. This works from the
cmd window, but not from the XEmacs shell (which is using cmd)
- and worse, XEmacs does not
indicate that anything's wrong... For example, the perl script:
=== test.pl ===
print "Hello, World!\n";
=== end test.pl ===
looks like it's run from the shell, but actually isn't...
=== *shell* ===
Microsoft(R) Windows NT(TM)
(C) Copyright 1985-1996 Microsoft Corp.
c:\scratch\exe>test.pl
test.pl
c:\scratch\exe>perl test.pl
perl test.pl
Hello, World!
c:\scratch\exe>
=== end *shell* ===
IMHO the shell should respect file associations, or, failing that,
notify the user that it cannot run the script.
