I want to run this command line: "C:\Program Files\LOVE\love.exe" "C:\games\mygame"
But it's too long, can i turn this into: love "C:\games\mygame"?
You have to add C:\Program Files\LOVE\ to the PATH environment variable. This way, the command can be found from the commandline without explicitly specifying the path.
See https://superuser.com/questions/284342/what-are-path-and-other-environment-variables-and-how-can-i-set-or-use-them on what environment variables are and how to set them in Windows.

I have a .sh file in which I want to run in Scala once a Gatling scenario has finished.
Does anyone have any code that would execute my sh script.
You should use the after block provided by Gattling :-
Refer this : https://gatling.io/docs/current/general/simulation_structure/#hooks
Here you can use after block :-
after { println("Simulation is finished!")}
Rest all is pure scala so use #Andrey answer above

Set shell variable with help perl script [duplicate]

How do I set an environment variable in Perl?
(5 answers)
Closed 6 years ago.
I was trying to set shell variable name with help of perl script.
But it was not running fine.
system("variable_name=\"variable_value\"");
`variable_name=\"variable_value\"`;
Any one tell me why it was not working.
Actually my question was little bit different.
I want to know how to set environment "setenv" with help of perl script.
I have tried
$ENV{"VARIABLE_NAME"} = "home\/path_1\/path_2\/path_3";
Then I fire command echo $VARIABLE_NAME then it is not giving me path that I set from perl script.
Thanks
You have no need to run a new shell to set an environment variable; indeed, doing so is counterproductive, since the value doesn't outlive the shell in which it's assigned (except through any surviving children of that shell which may have inherited the value).
You can simply set an environment variable directly in your perl:
$ENV{"variable_name"} = "variable_value"
Any subsequent shell you start from your perl script will see this.
It was working. The problem is that the next system command runs a new shell which doesn't know about variables set in the first shell.
system 'x=value; echo $x'; # Outputs "value".
system 'echo $x'; # Empty line - the shell with $x doesn't exist anymore.

(Excerpted from Programming Perl’s chapter on the debugger.)
If your .perldb file contains:
parse_options("NonStop=1 LineInfo=tperl.out AutoTrace");
then your program will run without human intervention, putting trace
information into the file tperl.out. (If you interrupt it, you’d better
reset LineInfo to /dev/tty if you expect to see anything.)
Install Devel::Trace and perl -d:Trace.
