I wrote a bash shellscript. It is running fine in the cygwin bash shell an a Windows NT system.
Now I have installed cygwin on my Computer at home running Win98se, but I don't get an output from the executed command in a command substition: # Here is the script: BASE=D:/WebSites/abc-def.de/web IDENTIFY=C:/Programme/ImageMagick-5.5.7-Q16/identify.exe PicPath=$BASE/bilder/greta Picture=greta_08.jpg $IDENTIFY -format "%w" $PicPath/$Picture PicWidth=`$IDENTIFY -format "%w" $PicPath/$Picture; ` echo "Picture With: $PicWidth !" echo "That's it." The first call to $IDENTIFY prints the requested value, the second executed as command substituion does not return any value: 283 Picture with: ! That's it. What's wrong with the script ? Second: less doesn't start. One DLL is missing: CYGPCRE-0.dll Why wasn't it installed from install.exe ?
