Well, you can remove them manually; but this is a computer and it should do the work. The next time, VC might break if you remove them, so you couldn't remove them. Cygwin should account for this sort of behavior in Windows-installed environment strings. It's a nontrivial change to the code that execs the cygwin program from within the encompassing Windows program, though. --Blair -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
