Hi, I have a Perl Tk GUI application that I have built into an executable using the ActiveState Windows PerlApp tool. Within my code I execute a series of commands using backticks (invokes Bash shell scripts). When the application is run I get a series of DOS/Bash windows appearing wihle these scripts are being executed.

My question is, is there a way to suppress to creation of these DOS windows while my application is running?

I have built my application with the -gui option:

perlapp -gui dlgProtoDb.pl

But this seems to only surpress the DOS window that is created on startup.

Thanks
