"… I have written a simple bash script …" - this is a quote from
original post. And this has reasons not to work on *nix: e.g. if OP
was writing a fish script he would need to use `env` (not sure, but
may be also possible in cmd.exe with some programs installed since
there are ports of quite a few *nix tools).
Also in cmd.exe the idea does not change, just you need a different
syntax for it.
