I’ve got a Strawberry Perl program that accepts a single-file as a command-line argument. How can I set things up such that I can drag and drop the desired file onto the Strawberry Perl program (or a wrapper around it) and the program runs with that file’s name as an argument?

    Under Windows (tested with XP), you can create a .cmd file and simply have it run the Perl program with the argument of %1 to pass the filename over, as if executed by commandline.

    perl c:\test.pl %1 

    Then you can simply drag and drop a file onto the .cmd file to execute.
