From: earl DOT chew AT altavista DOT net Subject: bash -s from .bat file 13 Jul 1998 09:42:44 -0700 Message-ID: <199807130723.DAA14907.cygnus.gnu-win32@web02.globecomm.net> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com I have a batch file which I wrote for b18. It basically reads: sh -s %1 < \a\b\c\foo.sh This worked as expected, but fails under b19.1. I notice a. I must use bash instead of sh. b. Even after using bash, the contents of the script are not read and executed correctly. Weird things happen (eg : causes much confusion). Using: sh //e/a/b/c/foo.sh %1 appears to work... but unfortunately is not drive independent :-( Can anyone explain what's going on?
