I duno if this helps, but when you write C/C++ programs and wants to include
backslash, you have to "escape" it with an backslash. I guess the php engine
is written in C or C++ and if they haven't compensated for the string
parsing
facilities in C/C++ then you will have to write it like this:
// exec("I:\\Perl\\bin\\cjpeg.exe -quality 30 -progressive $image_name");
