I was wrong. Only some improvement using the cygwin1-20110829.dll.bz2 snapshot. Problems still exist when trying to check in a file with RCS on this Windows share. Annotated test example below. Apologies for not being brief. Any ideas appreciated. However, progress has been made with the 0829

This did the trick, thanks: Uninstalling: git-completion (bash completion would not un-install without uninstalling this as well) bash completion both uninstalled and I have a fast ls and made my VM usable again. thanks! J.V. On 9/15/2011 11:50 PM, Marco Atzeri wrote: On

I had an rxvt.bat that I had used for some time, now it won't work. What changed? Also when I use the switch: -e /usr/bin/bash it takes forever to open. It looks like rxvt has changed or some command line switches removed. Is it possible to check out the source code to see the changes and do

how to run a .bat or .cmd file from bash prompt

2011-09-16 Thread J.V.
To run a .bat or .cmd file, I can do this: $cmd C:mybat.bat or C:\mycmd.cmd In other words, I have to type two commands (one to get to the shell, and another to run the .bat or .cmd file). What I want is to write a shell script (bash), that will cd to a directory, enter the dos cmd
