From the scripting perspective, there's not a problem. For me the problem is from the Windows (DOS) side. We must be doing something wrong.
Just "fiddle" until a Cygwin guru turns up...

I've just played around some more, and it seems that (in notepad) adding a blank line at the very end makes it work.
I will have to Wikipedia the origins of CRLF. For the life of me I can't see why both are neccessary. UNIX didn't have both for 40 years, and noone died!

cpanplus::shell::default::plugins::source
CPANPLUS::Shell::Default::Plugins::Source(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation CPANPLUS::Shell::Default::Plugins::Source(3)
NAME
CPANPLUS::Shell::Default::Plugins::Source - read in CPANPLUS commands
SYNOPSIS
CPAN Terminal> /source /tmp/list_of_commands /tmp/more_commands
DESCRIPTION
This is a "CPANPLUS::Shell::Default" plugin that works just like your unix shells source(1) command; it reads in a file that has commands
in it to execute, and then executes them.
A sample file might look like this:
# first, update all the source files
x --update_source
# find all of my modules that are on the CPAN
# test them, and store the error log
a ^KANE$'
t *
p /home/kane/cpan-autotest/log
# and inform us we're good to go
! print "Autotest complete, log stored; please enter your commands!"
Note how empty lines, and lines starting with a '#' are being skipped in the execution.
