Alex is right, it was indeed a line ending issue. I found this page discussing it: https://chess.eecs.berkeley.edu/softdevel/faq/5.html Basically, executing these commands fixes it: export SHELLOPTS set -o igncr After doing this I get this error: ANT_HOME is not set. Please set this variable So, that's something I'll probably be able to fix ;) cheers, Roland
