My system is Windows and I installed Cygwin so I can run shell and bash files. I'm having problems running the second script posted here https://superuser.com/questions/169151 by @Biapy and would like some infomation:
It doesn't tell you anything about what the script's command line should look like, so I ran it by deduction!
At the beginning of script, doesn't have any interpreter definition, or is this not mandatory?!
I tested both with #!/bin/bash and with #!/bin/sh, but I have the same problems:
Note: The script is in the same directory as the input files that it will read.
Running the script without putting the full path of the input files because they are in the same directory as the script:
sh script.sh "audio.ogg" "Cover.jpeg"
Output script:
script.sh: line 7: local: can only be used in a function
script.sh: line 8: : No such file or directory

rm: cannot remove '': No such file or directory
In both tests the same problems:
local: can only be used in a function
No such file or directory
Another problem is:
When the audio name has an exclamation mark, the script cancels before it even starts, see below:
Running script with audio name with exclamation mark:
sh script.sh "audio!.ogg" "Cover.jpeg"
Output script:
-bash: !.ogg: event not found
But if I run the script by putting single quotes in the input files, the -bash error goes away and it goes back to the initial error.
Running script with audio name with exclamation mark, putting single quotes in the input files:
sh script.sh 'audio!.ogg' 'Cover.jpeg'
Output script:
script.sh: line 7: local: can only be used in a function
script.sh: line 8: : No such file or directory
sed: can't read : No such file or directory

Could @Biapy help?
Note:
I already run other scripts on my system with no problem.
