Permission denied?

[quixote72@hotmail.com (Pedro Pinto)]

Hi there,

I've been playing with this wonderful shell on a Windows 2000
box using the latest version of cygwin and I found a problem 
when trying to launch two windows consoles (see appended
code). While I succeed in the first try the second gives me 
the following:

Error: 13
       "Permission denied"
       #{Procedure 12547 (%open in scsh-level-0)}
       "/var/tmp/13280"
       2561
       384
 

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

;;; this is somewhat convoluted but it allows us to set
;;; the console title and to actually pass arguments to
;;; the spawned process
(define (launch-windows-console exe args)
  (let ((cCommand (string-append "start \"" exe "\" " exe " " args "\nexit\n")))
    (run (cmd) (<< ,cCommand))))
  
;; this works
(launch-windows-console "dir" "")

;; this will cause the above Permission denied error
(launch-windows-console "dir" "")
