RE: [condor-users] Run Unix scripts in Windows machines

[Albert Reuther <reuther@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The other, not-so-attractive, option is to 
translate the shell script into a dos batch 
script. But it takes a lot of tedious 
translation, and there are things you just can't 
do in dos. Also you could write the scripts in 
Perl and run them with ActivePerl on the Windows 
machines, but just as with cygwin, you'd have to 
install ActivePerl on each Windows box. Both of 
these solutions, though, are inferior to cygwin.
