system-console and tcl exec

I'm using Quartus 11.1 and Windows 7 There is a difference in system-console's behavior depending on how it is invoked. If I start system-console from a Nios command shell, I can use the tcl exec...

What else could be missing or different?

The shell where 'exec' gets invoked is probably different.

I'm not sure how to force the correct shell. I also had a similar issue in Modelsim, but never had time to look at it further.

It might be that you need wrap all 'exec' targets in a bash shell with# !/bin/bash at the beginning, to force the use of the correct shell.

However, as I commented, I have not looked into this problem ... but perhaps this comment will help you find the solution.

Cheers,
