Yep - windows doesn't have a bash type shell - so that won't work. It is
only used to list the "pcb-lib" M4 library contents though (and we've
not installed M4 on Windows either).

Works for me under wine. I'll have to try on Win32 next time I boot it.
Is it possible that your keyboard focus isn't on the window. I
discovered under Win32 last time I looked, that you sometimes had to
click the part of the window you want to respond to such events.

As JPD suggested, try "."

How does it choke on the PWD command? Is it the (getenv ..) its self, or
the fact that "PWD" isn't set?

A quick Google search suggests that "cd" might be the environment
variable you want. e.g. 

echo %cd%

All this aside, just use "." if it works ;)
(Let me know if "." doesn't work).

Best wishes,
