Another nice alternative is to specify root as script executor instead of /bin/sh. Try for example the shell script: #! /user/rdm/root/bin/root.exe { for (int i = 0; i < gApplication->Argc(); i++) printf("argv[%d]: %s\n", i, gApplication->Argv(i)); gROOT->LoadMacro("$ROOTSYS/tutorials/zdemo.C"); zdemo(); //gApplication->Terminate(0); } Modify the root.exe location, save as bla make bla executable and run ./bla Cheers, Fons.
