Hi, I have a bash loop which I have significantly sped up by using: for ((i=0;i<=Z;i++)); do echo $i; done
instead of other format for loops as well as using internal math like: NEWX=$(($EAST+$DX)) Instead of let or expr. This process is now heaps faster but I want to echo the data to a file but not have to write to a file on each loop cycle as it slows it down. On native linux you would write: echo $NEWX > /dev/shm/new and then at the end of all the loops at the end of the script write to a file with: cat /dev/shm/new > $OUT --> Finally to the question. How do you do this with Cygwin??
