Hi!
I've a problem during cygwin use.
CommandS "ls","d" or "dir"(oTherS .exe file) and "exec ls","exec d" (oTherS .exe files in /bin)are not understanding.
And when I try to run some command using: "exec /bin/ls" (For example) command prompt exiting! Why does it exit???
When you use exec /bin/ls you are saying "Replace the currently executing program (your shell) with what follows". So then /bin/ls replaces /bin/bash and executes listing the contents of the current directory. Having finished its job /bin/ls also exits thus closing your window. This is working exactly as designed.
How can I fix it?
You can't because it is working as it should be.
And how can I make all commands like "ls -la", "cat" and others understanding(executabling) without "exec"???
Those commands should also be working, assuming you have /bin in your PATH environment variable.
As Larry says, you should follow the instructions at http://cygwin.com/problems.html to make sure your environment is properly set up.
P.S. excuse my English pls :)
