Hello All,
My first post on this forum. I am using cygwin to help me with some routine jobs on my laptop, with tcsh as my shell. I need to copy a set of files from one directory to a network drive every minute. So I have
set tperiod = 1
alias periodic 'cp *.txt /cygdrive/z/Data'
Unfortunately, it doesn't execute on its own unless I give carriage return. What am I missing?
Thanks,
PS: I know about cron and am using it for some other purposes. But it had trouble with network drive, so thought of using tcsh feature
