Oh my! That's definitely a bug. I'm writing test cases now, and should have a patch ready for the next release. I'll keep this ticket updated with my progress. Cheerio, Paul

This is just a quick note to say that IPC::System::Simple 1.17 has just been released, and is currently propagating across the CPAN. It contains a check to catch attempts to run the undefined command. I'd also like it to contain checks for any undefined elements being passed to IPC::System::Simple, but the aircraft inside which I was writing code wished to land before I completed the changes. I'm leaving this ticket open to remind me to complete the remaining undef checks. Many thanks again for your report, and all the very best, Paul
