I'm having trouble executing a shell script under Microsoft Windows using
org-babel. When I evaluate this:

    #+begin_src sh :results output
    echo Hello
    #+end_src

I get this:
    #+results:
    : Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
    : (C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.
    : 
    : c:\home\mike\notes-hg>More? 

It looks like the shell is invoked as expeced, but the 'echo' command does not
appear to be executed.  I've used babel to execute shell script under Linux, and
have used other babel languages (ditaa, plantuml, dot) under Windows, but this
is the first time I've tried the DOS shell.

Am I doing something obviously wrong, or is it time to fire up the debugger?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Regards,
Mike

  Just a cosmetic issue. If we can pass the argument " //nologo " to the shell
  call [1]
  
  the lines "Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
            (C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp."
  
  won't appear ;-)
  
  cheers,
  Giovanni

  Hi Mike,
  
  I have no access to a windows machine, so it is not surprising that the
  windows shell doesn't work as expected.
  
  All of the external Babel calls do use built in Emacs functions for
  calling external programs all of which work cross platform (which is why
  these other languages work on Windows despite no explicit Windows
  testing or development), however I believe that the shell is simply too
  OS-specific to expect things to "just work" as in the other languages.
  
  If you do find ways to improve ob-sh.el for windows I would be happy to
  fold such changes in.
  
  Thanks -- Eric

  As a (possibly) interesting example of how little windows support I have
  locally, here is how your email (presumably from a Windows machine)
  appears in my email client.
