Hi,
I used Cygwin NT4.0, SP3. I'm sorry for stupid questions.
I assigned a shell variable a:
export a="lower case"
When I started rxvt by command:
rxvt -fn "Lucida Console-bold-14" -tn linux-c &
I got my shell variable a:
echo $a
lower case
I put the command in a file, let's say myxvt.
#!/bin/bash
rxvt ....
I started myxvt.
echo $a
but:
echo $A
lower case
My question:
1. Does bash decided to rename variable name in upper case?
2. Why it worked in case of command?
Thank you
Tien
