Subject: [ruby-talk:30009] Re: Execing command with backquotes

now I have a workaround, but it ist ugly!!! Because now I have an
output I don't want and I cannot examine this output as I wanted:

I can execute the xcopy like this

system( "cmd.exe", "/c", "xcopy /s /e #{sourceroot}*.*
#{targetdirectory}" )
