I am loving Cygwin.
I have been reading the manuals and documentation and have some newbie questions.
1) When I go to execute a script, do I just type the name of it or do i have to do a ./NameOfScript ?
2) I am trying to do an Alias of the Clear Command ... in my bashrc I has an alias for clear to do a printf "\033c". Well it does not seem to work from my scripts, but works from shell prompt.
Is this a path issue ?
3) I am still trying to figure out how to open a termial window and have a menu script always run.
Should I put this in my .profile or is there a better way to do this ?
Thanks for all the work of the Cygwin team.
