Thanks for the report. I have known for a while that Sys::Cmd is broken on Windows, but I don't have access to a machine to develop and test on. I've written a blog entry on blogs.perl.org to try to find some support, but until I get some I won't be able to do much. I'll leave this issue open of course, to be answered when the situation changes. I'm sorry that I can't offer a solution at this stage. Mark. -- Mark Lawrence

Version 0.81.8 introduced proper Win32 support using the Proc::FastSpawn module. I now have access to a Strawberry Perl environment and Sys::Cmd 0.81.9_3 now passes all of its tests there, so I'm going to close this ticket as the hang issue is solved. However I have seen some other test failures on Win32 (perhaps that is why you set the broken flag for version 0.81.8?) relating to the exit status not being retrieved, but I can't duplicate them. If you do come across this feel free to raise another ticket. Thanks for your patience. -- Mark Lawrence
