I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Re: Exiftool not working on Win 7
Hi!

I've cleared my machine of perl and the perl version of exiftool and I've replaced everything with the latest .exe. When I drag an XMP onto the .exe it correctly displays the exif of the file. I now need help making the exe do what I want it to!

I've started off by simply replacing the reference to exiftool.pl with exiftool.exe in my bat file - I get the error that 'C:\exiftool\exiftool is not recognised as a valid executable or batch file'. Is the error because the .exe is not being picked up for some reason? My batch reads like so:

@echo off :begin if _%1_==__ goto end echo Processing %1... C:\exiftool\exiftool(-k).exe -TagsFromFile %%d%%f.arw "-lensId>lens" -ext XMP %1 -overwrite_orig +inal -r pause shift goto begin :end

I have replaced the temp minolta.pm with my custom version - however if this is going to be deleted every time windows decides to clear its temp files then maybe I'll look into the custom file. Look forwards to getting this one working - thanks again for your continued support!
