I've tested the above code and work it out like this: set cygwin_bin=C:\cygwin\bin %cygwin_bin%\bash -l %~dp0myscript > myresult In the above example by me, we need to pay attention to the following matters: 1- %~dp0myscript mean that the file myscript is located at the same directory as the bat file, i.e, the batch file which include the above patch codes I posted here. This batch file will invoke the bash script file myscript. 2- the -c parameter used by you shouldn't be used here, if I used it, I will meet the errors like this: ... command not found 3- The --login or -l must be used here, otherewise the following error will be occur like this: myscript: line 1: awk : command not found 4- The path name conventions in the invoking of this batch file, the dos rule, i.e., _\_, should be used instead of the bash convention, i.e., _/_, as the delimitor of path. 5- In your case, >d:\> bash -c ./myscript actully, in the usage, the file myscript must ba put into the bash's directory, i.e., C:\cygwin\bin. This is not a convenient solution.
