It's just that nobody has ported it. I once had your problem and solved it with cp /bin/tcsh.exe /bin/csh.exe This is, obviously, not guaranteed to work in all cases. As for ".exe.exe" not running, I'm curious as to how you managed to find that out. In any case my answer is "don't do that". -----Original Message----- From: Patt, Vladimir [mailto:vladimir AT emc DOT co DOT il] Subject: RE: scripts and exe file extensions in tcsh Thanks, for quick response! My files starts with "#!/usr/bin/csh", you say that, I have to change all scripts in c-shell's to shell, doesn't cygwin support c-shell? Obviously "test.exe" was an example filename. The file with extension ".exe.exe" doesn't run. The file with '.exe' extension run's from path but only if it called without extension. In UNIX I can run any file marked 'x' executable in his attributes.
