[WFS-India] [Gnu-linux-discussion] Interesting Blogs

1. Please don't hijack threads. As far as I can see, your query has
absolutely nothing to do with the OT viz. Interesting Blogs.
Start a new thread for a new query; it's free! :=)

2. As for a direct answer to your query, try Cygwin as suggested by another
poster for a pretty complete package. Also, there used to be  quite a nice
port of Bash (standalone) for windows; probably called win-bash or
something.

Are you in Insert mode of vi?
Are you doing this from a remote session?

Vi, et al may be not quite "friendly" as compared to something like gedit.

Try something simple like
*for i in `seq 1 10`;do

*echo $i
done*

Do you still get the same error?
Otherwise, show us the code you were trying which threw the errors.

Also, was the shell script file(s) you are trying to run created in a
windows system?
Are you doing this from a remote session?
