Thanks for the feedback. So does this mean that it is the tcl that is bundled with Cygwin that is broken?

Is there an easy workaround?

Cheers.

According to Steve Smith on 2/2/2006 5:17 AM:

I have a similar problem to that reported before under this subject title. When I type "env" the environment appears fine. However, when I start a
tclsh and type

puts [ exec sh -c "env" ]

the environment is almost empty - this is new behaviour, the whole
environment got fully passed through until recently.

Sounds like YA case of
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2006-01/msg00938.html. tclsh is one of the few programs in /bin that does not link against cygwin1.dll, but uses Windows directly. So it probably needs to be taught how to interact with
cygwin's updated environment scheme.
