Perl and NT and SQLPLUS

With Perl on any UNIX platform you can do something like this:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl

@crud = `sqlplus -s << EOF

         blorch/blorch_word

         select * from felch;

         exit
         EOF`;

then you can loop through the results mixing and matching, etc.

foreach $barf (@crud) {

   do something
}

How do you do something like this on an NT platform seeing as the here document in my example is specific to UNIX?
