Babel & sh & Windows

Babel & sh & Windows

[Srinivas]

Hi

I am trying to learn how to use Babel on a Windows system and need some help.

I would like to produce the directory tree for a given directory (/bin in this 
example).

I tried the following:

#+srcname: directory-tree
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir /bin :results output org replace :exports results
tree
#+END_SRC

The output is as given below:

#+results: directory-tree
c:\bin>More? 

My org-babel-sh-command setting is:

(setq org-babel-sh-command "cmd /k")

What do I need to do see some output in the #+results section?

Thanks in advance for you help.

I've played with babel a little bit on Windows, and found that adding an extra 
non-blank line at least gets me some output:


#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir /bin :results output org replace :exports results
tree
echo
#+END_SRC

I haven't taken the time to dig any further into this, but it works 
consistently on my system.

What I do is using Cygwin's shell, instead of cmd.exe (default from MS). That
way, I even get more portable code across machines (-> Ubuntu).

Thanks Michael, the extra echo statement did the trick.
