Yakov,
Thanks for the reply.
Apologies for confusion. 8.5 was version of tcl as reported by
tcl_version. Please find below more information. Note that
"filename_val" is printed only once -- by tclsh, but the child (bash)
does not see environment variable FILENAME.
Any specific information that you might want to see?
Stas.
$ which tclsh
/usr/bin/tclsh
$ cygcheck.exe -c tcl cygwin
Cygwin Package Information
Package Version Status
cygwin 2.0.4-1 OK

$ cat test_env_export1.tcl
set env(FILENAME) filename_val
puts $env(FILENAME)
puts [exec /bin/bash -c {echo $FILENAME}]
puts $env(EDITOR)
puts [exec /bin/bash -c {echo $EDITOR}]
$ tclsh test_env_export1.tcl
