From: akbarhome Date: 2007-02-17T02:35:11+09:00 Subject: pgrep equivalent on windows Hi, I have this code need to be translated to windows machine: `kill #{`pgrep -f optimize_jobs.rb`.chomp}` exec("ruby -C#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/files optimize_jobs.rb &") if fork == nil The second line has been translated successfully as: require "win32/process" exec("ruby -C#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/files optimize_jobs.rb &") if Process.fork == nil But what about first line? Anybody know how to translate that to windows machine (Windows XP Home if that matters)? Thank you.
