Commands that are exe files are supposed to work. For example perl and grep are both exe files in your bin directory, which is something like C:\Cygwin\bin in Windows terms. If you have that directory in your path, then those commands will work from a regular Windows cmd shell (a "DOS Window"). Anything else is not supposed to work. Commands which are not exe files, for example shell scripts (bash, ksh, etc.) or Perl or Python programs will not work directly from the cmd command line. You need to invoke their interpreter first. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
