The program run, and works, but ... I have a perl program running from a WIndows CMD shell, that needs to somehow run it in bash (with my usual environment when I run the bash shell)
If I run bash, I invoke my program my program using './qlt' followed by almost a dozen commandline arguments. If I had compiled it using MSVC++, I could invoke it from my perl program using "my $op = `qlt a nb c args`;" How do I modify what is within perl's backticks so that qlt is invoked as a child in my normal bash environment? Can it be done? I am not asking about building the program so it doesn't need to run within cygwin's bash. I have other tools that let me do that if I must. Rather, I want to make a child process that has the cygwin environemt even though the parent process does not.
