What file extensions are used to identify command shell scripts?
For windows, you might use .cmd, .bat as common file extensions. Unix doesn't use file extensions as associations, so no file extension needs to be used in the Unix environment. A shell script in Unix is simply a text file with any name that is readable and executable. However, file extensions are typically used in Unix as a documentation aid that states that the file is a shell script. Common extensions are .sh, .csh, .ksh, .tcsh, .zsh, etc.

There are several ways. One is to have Samba configured on the Unix system so that the Windows system has access to it. Another way is to install the lpr service for windows (most Windows servers now have that service as an installable service). 'lpr' is the Unix printing spooler which would allow you to use the lpr command in windows to print to a Unix printer.
