Try to set HOME so it points to the place you want to have 'home'. Maybe you also need HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH set too, but I only think HOME. If you unset HOME, I think most cygwin stuff would go for the path in /etc/passwd [...] | > Hmm do a echo $TERM and see what it says.. | | *** Here is something intereseting: | | Robert Mark Bram@DIJONG ~ | $ echo $TERM | nutc Bingo, Rational probably sets the TERM environment variable in the global environment, either change it in your cygwin.bat (or wherever you fire up cygwin toold from) or remove the Rational settings. The problem is that when firing up bash, cygwin notices that TERM is already set, and therefore defaults to that instead of 'cygwin' as it wants. unset it in the batch file also.. You might need to finger with TERMCAP and TERMINFO, should be enuff unsetting them in the batch-file. /Andy -- The eye of the beholder rests on the beauty! -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
