How to specify in a bat file that a script needs to be called in Cygwin mode?
I wrote a perl script which uses some linux commands (grep, ls etc..). I can successfully run this from Cygwin or Linux. I want this task to be run periodically on a Windows Server which has Cygwin installed. I was planning to use Windows task scheduler. But I am not sure how to specify in a Windows bat file, that my perl script needs to be called in Cygwin mode?
EDIT: I tried the command by Glenn. When I tried running the perl script, it doesn't seem to respond. So I tried with a sample script: test.sh, which has the following two lines:
ls -l
cd ..
Here is the screen capture of what I am getting:
I'm not a great fan of cygwin and personally prefer natively compiled versions of the GNU tools, e.g. GnuWin32.
I also wonder why you would be using grep, ls etc. from a Perl script. Most of that functionality can be handled natively by Perl and this usually results in much better portability and robustness.
