How to handle filenames with spaces?

Question

I use Perl on windows(Active Perl). I have a perl program to glob the files in current folder, and concatenate them all using dos copy command called from within using syste

Answer 1

In windows you can normally put double quotes around the filenames (and/or paths) allowing special chars i.e "long file names".

C:\"my long path\this is a file.mp3"

Edit:

Does this not work?

system("copy /b \"$_\"+$outfile $outfile");

(NOTE THE DOUBLE quotes within the string not single quotes)
