try cmd.exe tcl or wish

or linux bash.
Good luck.

Could be your version of windows or cygwin. Under Vista 64 SP2 and
cygwin 1.5.25-15 everything above works.

I was just starting to try to do some playing with TCL, and ran into an
interesting problem. If you're running bash through Cygwin:
A) Trying to run xtclsh just hangs entirely, forcing you to kill the
process.
B) The built-in Cygwin tclsh seems to work fine, but when you try to
execute the line >> source $env(XILINX)/bin/xilinx-init.tcl << you get
the response "The XILINX environment variable is not set or is empty."
with XILINX set to either C:/Xilinx/11.1/ISE or
to /cygdrive/c/Xilinx/11.1/ISE.
xtclsh runs fine when executed under the normal Windows XP cmd shell,
but if I've got to sit around hopping back and forth between shells its
going to make for a very complicated build process.
I figured CAF was about the only place where someone might know about
working with TCL scripts for Xilinx designs under Cygwin. So...anyone?
Thanks,
Rob
