cygwin on windows7
Guys,

I am new to this site and ksh scripting. I am trying to run the following code on cygwin on windows 7 but it keeps giving me syntax error. For some reason, it works on my buddies comp but not on my laptop. Done anyone know whats going on here?

Code:
#!/usr/bin/ksh
 
TXTFILE="sourcefile.txt"
#SIDN=4567
cat $TXTFILE | grep -v "#"| while read R1D
do
   echo ${R1D}
done

=========================
Code:
$ ./hello.ksh
: not found[2]:
./hello.ksh[11]: syntax error: 'done' unexpected

=================================
Code:
$ type ksh
ksh is hashed (/usr/bin/ksh)
