Hello all, I have just had my work system set upto use cygwin. Unfortunately, my home directory and all other directories which are mapped to network stores and properly backed up have a $ sign in their path:
$ pwd //sbs01/students_home$/csmith This $ sign causes problems everywhere - with latex, with svn, with anything that uses ~ to refer to my home directory, because it expands to ...$/... and bash tries to parse the $/ as a variable. Does anyone know how to change this or hide this? It may only be a problem with pwd and applications which use this because, e.g., when I'm in / (which is C:\cygwin) and I type pwd I get "/" as the result. Thanks heaps for your help!
