Executing unix script on windows through MKSToolkit

Shell Programming and Scripting
1

hi,

I have an unix script and i'm executing from command prompt in windows.
The script is exiting immediately when i call the script.But the script is getting executed at the back end.

But when i type sh at command prompt i'm getting $ sign and i can see the execution of script.

Is there any way to modify my script to wait until completion of the process and then exit.

Also is there any problem when trying to call d:\script\a.ksh from C:\

Please advice!

you could add the following line to your unix script

echo "press enter to continue"; read ans

Which would cause the script to wait until your press the ENTER key.

3

Is there any other method instead of manually entering the key. This script is used for scheduling purpose.

4

Any ideas about doing this. Please advice!

Unless we see your script and what it is doing, we really cannot help you. You simply have not provided enough information.
