I am trying to port a script from Linux to windows
(the boss wants it that way). The stumbling block is:
The script prepares a few data files and uses a system call
system "gracebat $file1 $file2 ..."
to create jpg files that the shift personel will look at
Now the graphics program (grace) is part of cygwin, so I installed cygwin, but when I test this, i.e. clicking on gracebat.exe or grace.exe, nothing happens. Anyone have an idea?
