I've been using Cygwin for a long time. I haven't run a fresh install for quite a while.
A colleague just installed Cygwin for the first time, following my basic instructions. He ended up with his Cygwin home being the same as his Windows home, which is different from my setup, but I think that's fine. What seems odd is that he didn't get the default dot files created, being .profile, .bash_profile, and .bashrc. I don't even remember whether this happened the first time I set it up. In any case, I handed him my dot files to template from, but I was curious about that process. -- Problem reports: https://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: https://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: https://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: https://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
