It should at least be +x for the one who executes it. Please be more specific on what doesn't work? Does echoing not work, say, if you add `echo $myenv' in your script? By the way, this does not seem to be a cygwin problem. Kindly check for more info in http://www.cygwin.com/problems.html Thanks! Best Regards, Carlo ------ Carlo Florendo Astra Philippines Inc.
