Hello bug-par, I have a perl app ("compiled" with PAR) and I would like to get the name of input file using right click "Send To" from Explorer. I have created a shortcut in my SendTo directory, now I choose one file, right click on it, Send To, click 1.exe. It dont work from Explorer with SendTo , but from command line. my script: $a = $ARGV[0]; open (FILE,">f:\\file.txt"); print FILE $a; close FILE; creating exe with PAR: Show quoted text

>pp -o 1.exe 1.pl

please follow this link to read all thread: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/perl-win32-users/1968302 -- Best regards, mailto:du4mi@gmx.de

I tried it with PAR 0.79 on WinXP and it works just fine. Can you upgrade to PAR 0.79 from http://par.perl.org/ and see if it works? ActiveState's PPM builder somehow refuses to build my Module::ScanDeps, although it looks like perfectly normal. (anyone knows who to prod for PPM builder failures?) Thanks, /Autrijus/
