Re: help: a bash script to launch x-win and then do someting in x-win


#!/bin/bash

startx
cd /cygdrive/c
pwd

For this particular script, x-win was launched but the commands followed
never ran either in bash-window or x-win; Sorry but didn't find answers to
my difficulty in those archives. Thanks
