ps within DOS

[Brian Warn]

As part of a (win32) perl program I'm running, I'm trying to run a
system ps command and return to the DOS shell (or whatever the shell is
known as in Win2K).  From the command line, I can do the following, but
I stay in the bash shell:

C:> c:\cygwin\cygwin.bat | ps | exit

[ ps info here ]

my_machine $


The bottom line is that I want to read process info into an array as
follows:

@my_array=`cygwin.bat | ps | grep "desired string"`;

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,
Brian
