In this case, it's either the char " or the " in followed by blank char. As for trying escaping like you mention below, what do you suggets for the tcl script: set awkCode { { print " "; } } exec awk $awkCode TIA, /ChJ ----- Original Message ----- From: "Earnie Boyd" To: "Christian_Jönsson" ; Sent: Monday, June 26, 2000 2:45 PM Subject: Re: Problem with cygwin-1.1.2 gawk-3.0.4 [Was: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: gawk-3.0.4] > --- Christian_Jönsson wrote: > > thanks, i tried that, in a dos shell, I did a set CYGWIN=notty nobinmode > > and the started cygwin.bat in that dos shell.
