Start menu->Settings->Control Panel->System->Advanced->Environment variables. Find 'PATH' in the "System variables" section, click "Edit", append ";C:\cygwin\bin" (without the quotes, and if you installed cygwin anywhere other than C:\cygwin, use that directory name instead). Click "Apply" and "OK" until you've closed the "System Properties". Close cmd.exe, start another one and bingo. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- 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/
