Hi *, [this is my 2nd email ... got myself some mailing-list registration problems as well ... sorry for the noise]
I try to start cygwin commands without a DOS-Box as suggested by run and run2. To no avail. I see the CMD-Window (DOS-Box) flashing up (and down again). I tried cygwin and cygwin64 on a Windows 7 64Bit machine. The command does complete successful (e.g. just a "#!/bin/sh <CR> ls -1 | wc -l > count_file.txt") but I cannot help perceiving the opening and immediate closing of the DOSBox window. Running a series of such commands in a loop would render my Windows desktop into a stroboscope. Also I looked up the cygwin (and winsup) sources but was not lucky to find any code or run or run2. And there's no reference whatsoever in /usr/share/doc/run and /usr/share/doc/run2 on where to *obtain* the sources for these packages. They do not seem to be included in the regular cygwin CVS. I do not know what I'm doing wrong, since Google tells me it should work without popping up a DOS-Box window. Could anyone please post me some advice (or tell me where to obtain the sources)?
