Try setx: http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/tools/existing/setx-o.asp You can change Windows environment variables from the command line, so that you can call setx and change them from bash scripts. It works excellent for me to share a single ssh-agent Windows-wide. :) You can use it only on NT/2000/XP, perhaps. I'm not sure what's available on Windows 9X/ME. > Also, is there a BASH equivalent of the windows cmd start command > that lets you start many processes without having to wait on each to finish? ``cygstart'' should be what you are looking for. -- ììí | Jaeho Shin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | http://netj.org/ Research On Program Analysis System, Seoul National University
