Does 'echo temp*' work?
Compare the environments in bash and tcsh. Did you try setting CYGWIN?
It also seems that the wildcard is not expanded by tcsh (if it were, your
error message would be 'ls: No match.', not 'ls: temp*: No such file or
directory'). Are you running cygwin's tcsh (run 'which tcsh' to find
out)?

You forgot the space between 'cmd' and '/c'... However, if ls works in
bash, that's probably not necessary to run, anyway.
