Cannot use qqx in rakudo star on windows7 #5318
Comments
From @teodozjan$ perl6 -v $ perl6

From @zoffixznetCan you switch to a different directory (e.g. C:\) before trying to run the command and see if it still fails? Also, can you try running it outside of the REPL, just with perl6 -e 'say qqx{dir}' I can't reproduce with R* 2016.04 on Windows 10 x64. |
The RT System itself - Status changed from 'new' to 'open' |

Another interesting result Directory of c:\Windows\SysWOW64 |
From @teodozjanAlso tested on 07 rakudo star with fresh windows 7 with same result |
From @teodozjanI found resolution. It looks like it is problem windows locale issue than perl itself. Running command chcp utf8 Makes work just fine. Default is 852. I'm very supprised because I use unicode encoding all the the time and never had such issue. For me it would be better to detect if codepage is set to 852 and warn user that perl6 may not work well. Shall we close it or leave defect for future improvement? |
From @stmukMaybe the Windows port of rakudo should set this automatically on startup?

From @teodozjanWill it work fine for utf-16 users?

From @stmukI'm not sure. Probably your idea of warning about detected encoding is better. S
