Shell for Windows (cmd.exe) is considerably different from sh:
1. command separator is not ';' but '&'.
2. () does not mean subshell.
3. & does not mean background job.
... ...
tests
(1) start FILELOAD.pdf & echo %PATH%
returns at once, and shows %PATH% at once
(2) start /wait FILELOAD.pdf & echo %PATH%
does not return untill Acrobat reader is closed.
%PATH% is shown later when Reader is closed.
I can't at present realize
"return at once, but echo PATH later when Acrobat is closed"
Best regards,
Akira
