RE: converting NT batch files to Unix shell

..... re-write those in Perl. Test the Perl version on NT. It will work on UNIX as well :) Am I right, Jared?

The best thing to do is document the logic in the script, throw it away, and rewrite it in the shell of your choice.

Unless of course you can find some automated utility to convert batch files to shell.

Hi DBAs,

OS: Solaris 2.8
DB: 8i

Is there any tricks/techniques ( or documentation) to convert NT batch file to Unix shell script.

( seems to be the question silly.)

But I really need it for our new project.

This is to migrate the data (flatfiles) to oracle from AS400.

We have received some batch files written in NT (along with the data (flat) files, and if we can convert the batch files to unix shell script the process would become easy for migration.

Thanks in advance,
Srinivas
