Hi everybody,

I'm new on this group, and I have not found a answer to that question.

    I want to run a shell script (chbar.sh for inserting changebar
environments on .tex files) on Windows/DOS, which calls several
UNIX-Tools contained in DJGPP (excepted ED).  It works fine for me with
the complete DJGPP system. Now I want to install it on the machines of
some friends, but without installing the complete DJGPP system.

    When I copy the related .exe files to a separate directory and do
not set DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV and remove DJGPP  from the path I got
the error message:

chbar.sh: Can't make pipes for command substitution!
chbar.sh: cannot duplicate fd 11 to fd 0: Bad file descriptor (EBADF)

What I have to do to run  SED, RM, DIFF, ED, GAWK, GREP, MV, CAT, MKDIR
indepently from DJGPP ?

Thanks in advance for any comment

Jens
