I need to start acrobat from a bash shell. Acrobat needs some of its parameters to be enclosed with double quotes. This is needed to automatically open and print a pdf.
When I try to do that directly from a bash shell, I can't get it to pass arguments enclosed with the double quotes. It will do that for arguments with spaces in them, but for single word arguments, it doesn't If I try to do a \", then it passes the \" to the windows app. The only workaround I've come up with so far, is to create a batch file in the bash shell, and then invoke it with a cmd /c batch.bat But there should be a way to control how arguments are passed. Does anyone have any ideas. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
