Sorry - I'm not with you. Presently I'm running htdig from the dos command
line. Are you saying I should create a script file and run it from within
cygwin at the bash prompt? I tried
DOC2HTML_LOG = ""
./htdig -i -c ../conf/htdig.conf
export DOC2HTML_LOG
but the "can't open file /tmp/htdext.???" problem recurs, which I fixed by
running htdig from the dos command line and setting TMPDIR=d//
Thanks
