Subject:	Exploring the idea of going from MKS tooklt to Cygwin
MIME-Version:	1.0
X-IsSubscribed:	yes

Can anyone give me any ideas or comments ? 

I am exploring the idea of moving some scripting from the MKS toolkit to Cygwin. 

I have all of these korn shell scripts that I use to poll our EDI mailboxes, translated the EDI, ftp files to various servers, etc.  

I am trying to go from Windows XP to Windows 7.  

I tried running one of my menus under cygwin and it bombed out with various errors.  
Maybe I will create a new scripts directory and see if I can modify them to run under cygwin. 

One of my first questions would be, how do I open a Cygwin window and have it run a shell script, like a menu  ?  

Thanks for any help.
