Since you've decided to start using Cygwin, the best advice is probably to write it as a shell script instead. There are many tutorials on the web. But if you really want to use a batch file...make sure it's executable, then just run it--for example: /tmp[0]$cat >eraseme.bat <<\EOF echo Hello from batch file EOF /tmp[0]$chmod +x eraseme.bat /tmp[0]$./eraseme.bat C:\cygwin-1_7\tmp>echo Hello from batch file Hello from batch file -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
