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. -- 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
