First, I am a newbee to Cygwin so please excuse my lack of knowledge.
I have a text file (aaa.txt) which contains a simple grep command. When I
start Cygwin.bat, I want this file to be started (executed) as part of
invoking the cygwin.bat file. I don't know how to do it. Any help will be
appreciated.
cygwin.bat file
@echo on
C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin
set HOME=\cygwin
bash --login -i
I could give you two ways to do that:
1) You simply have to edit /etc/bash.bashrc then add the line that executes
aaa.txt. For example, if, as you say, your file aaa.txt is in "c:\temp
dir" and contains a *simple* grep command, then the line on the
/etc/bash.bashrc file would look like this:
`cat /cygdrive/c/temp\ dir/aaa.txt`
Note the backticks at the start and end of the line and note that the
directory appears as:
"temp\ dir"
and not
"temp dir"
2) You could actually put the entire grep command on /etc/bash.bashrc if
you wish.
Thank you very much!
Best Regards,
Carlo
