Re^5: dmake and bash on Win?

If you run dmake from a CMD (not via git-bash). Then either add a line SHELL=c:...\bash.exe at the beginning of the Makefile (I guess!) or set an windows-ENV var SHELL to point to the bash executable. Of course you need to have that bash.exe somewhere. HTH. Over and out :) I had enough of windows contact for this year!

p.s. Another monk had your woes: Intrepid's scratchpad and seems to have made some progress.

OK, let me rephrase my question ... ;) Which bash??? If Perl distributions create makefiles with ba/shell code, they must assume that there is either pre-installed shell or that dmake is bundled with some emulation magic. I know that newer Wins come with a Linux subsystem, but this is older... Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]

OH THE PENNY DROPPED! I have no idea, sorry. Perhaps you can shell out a pipe with a sleep and check, if it succeeds, what the task manager says. p.s. joke :) : if unix was sushi	[reply]

Well, the recipes can also be written in SHELL=Perl, that should fix that problem ;) Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]
