perl-IPC-System-Simple

Package Name:

perl-IPC-System-Simple

Summary:

Run commands simply, with detailed diagnostics

URL:

http://search.cpan.org/dist/IPC-System-Simple

Description:

Calling Perl's in-built 'system()' function is easy; determining if it was successful is _hard_. Let's face it, '$?' isn't the nicest variable in the world to play with, and even if you _do_ check it, producing a well-formatted error string takes a lot of work. 'IPC::System::Simple' takes the hard work out of calling external commands. In fact, if you want to be really lazy, you can just write: use IPC::System::Simple qw(system); and all of your "system" commands will either succeed (run to completion and return a zero exit value), or die with rich diagnostic messages.
