Indeed, some code would be quite helpful.
What code have you tried, and what are the errors (and errorInfo) from them?

There should be no problems with TCL 8.4.9. Seems almost like they made the same mistake with 8.4.11 again as before 8.4.9.
you should have searched the windrop forums about it:

Native Win32 ports of some GNU utilities

Code: Select all

putserv "notice $nick :System uptime: [eval exec uptime]"
I hope the above example code helps; the ported utilities are copied into your Windrop's main folder.

what have native GNU win32 utils to do with eggdrop failing to perform execution of any binary, GNU or not GNU, native or non native, via exec or open |? Please read the topic I have linked to. I am pretty sure they are refering to this issue.
