Running Bash Scripts?


When I first run bash in a DOS box in Windows 95, and run a bash script, I
get a no such file of directory error. If I then run a sub-shell by typing
"bash", the script will run fine. (see the example below). Does anyone know
why?

1:# cd /windows/desktop/example
2:/windows/desktop/example# ls -al test5
-rw-r--r--   1 500      everyone       13 Mar 09 19:08 test5
3:/windows/desktop/example# cat test5
echo Hi
ls
4:/windows/desktop/example# test5
BASH.EXE: ./test5: No such file or directory
5:/windows/desktop/example# bash
1:/windows/desktop/example# test5
Hi
test5
2:/windows/desktop/example# exit
exit
6:/windows/desktop/example#
