That is the echo in c:\cygwin\bin. Exactly ! I guess I should have been more direct and asked about the results of % which bash % which sh FWIW I found this line in Mark's cygcheck output 'worrisome' SHELL = `c:/mksnt/sh.exe' Cheers Norman -----Original Message----- From: Mark Wood-Patrick Sent: Friday, December 28, 2001 1:07 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Cc: Mark Wood-Patrick ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Subject: RE: stty and echo woes Norman writes: >> Yikes, that is quite the $PATH >> You might want to think about simplifing it a bit when working in a >> Cygwin shell >> what is the result of issuing >> % which echo >> Cheers >> Norman I have rationalized my path some and 'which echo' returns "echo is a shell builtin" since I am running with bash.
