How to setup Textpad for Perl ?

[leegold]

Hi,

How to I run Perl from Textpad? I tried tools and using C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe as the command w/the defaults but it'snot working. Googled it but what I saw and tried did not work. I would also like a syntax check through Textpad. Do anyone know exactly how?

Thanks

Note: I'm doing GUI things with wxPerl. Code work fine when invoked fron DOS box - but not so far from TextPad.

You haven't said what you want to do, how you tried to do it, what happened when you tried, or whether your perl is in C:\Perl\bin.

Do you want to run the Perl script in the current document? Try

Command: C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe
Parameters: $File
Initial folder: $FileDir

[X] Capture output

To check the syntax of the script, try

Command: C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe
Parameters: -c $File
Initial folder: $FileDir

[X] Capture output

I know nothing about wxPerl.
