I'm having a problem when redirecting output from a system call to a text
file. A good example would be:
command.com /c dir /O /a-d /s > dir.txt
When I run this directly from the command line I will get the full path
structure in the output file. When I call this from a perl script in the
form:
system ('command.com /c dir /O /a-d /s > dir.txt');
the output to the text file concatentates directory names longer than 8
characters to 8 characters. My desire is to have the output explicitly
state the full path rather than the concatenation.
Any ideas what I need to do to overcome this problem?
Thanks for your assistance . . .
