Default Re: C++ system() not working!!?!? (Cygwin bash shell?)

sh is actually the Bourne Shell, and later replaced by the Thompson Shell, and now is bash normally used, which is the Bourne-Again Shell, referring to the "Bourne" in the Bourne Shell, as "born".

Why do you use Cygwin anyway? It seems like you're normally not using it besides for programming. I would remove/uninstall it, and install a package called MingW instead. MingW is a port of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) and does only include the necessary stuff for programming like a compiler, assembler, linker, debugger, etc.
