Problem with running ferret in batch
Hello,
I have Ferret 5.6 running under Linux Fedora Core 1. Running a batch job
like:
ferret -script try.jnl
works fine.
However, on another machine I run Ferret 5.7 running under Linux Fedora
Core 2. In this case:
ferret -script try.jnl
doesn't work (it just opens a Ferret session without running try.jnl).
Even:
ferret -h
doesn't work -- i.e. it doesn't give the "help" information.
However, on the second machine:
ferret < try.jnl
works fine (except that I need to have a "quit" at the end of the file
try.jnl, or otherwise ferret just hangs).
What is the reason for this different behaviour? May I just have a bad
installation of Ferret 5.7 on the second machine?
Cheers,
John Hunter
