Hi Peter, It was "Raku". And I did check the result of what was suppose to have happened and it did not. I had a little tiny panic attack as I had spend endless hours on that program just to have it not interface with Cobian. After correcting my "usr lib", all the text that was suppose to show (as showed in a shell) did show up i the Raku black box. Trivia: this is how Cobian calls my program: COMMANDLINE,"C:\rakudo\bin\raku.exe C:\NtUtil\CobianWrapper.pl6 --rotates 20 --backup_path [BACKUP]\MyDocsBackup\backup1",true -TThread Previous | Thread Next
