Thanks all for some useful nuggets of info.
I'm experimenting with the shortcut CMD.exe with
"C:\msys64\usr\bin\bash.exe --login -i" as my target.
This is a pretty good shell, immediately hooks in as an MSYS shell but some
vim issues did come up.
I did find the msys python which was shrouded
in version numbers:
greg@Homerw7 MSYS ~
$ ls /usr/bin | grep pyt
msys-python2.7.dll
python2.7.exe
python2.7-config
python2.exe
python2-config
and so by creating NTSF links
mklink python2.7.exe python
mklink python2.7-config python-config
I can have a setup similar to cygwin64. Which is broken also, in that I am
having trouble getting
numpy to import. This is now a python issue:
greg@Homerw7 MSYS ~
$ python -c "import numpy; numpy.get_include()"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/__init__.py", line 170, in
<module>
from . import add_newdocs
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/add_newdocs.py", line 13, in
<module>
from numpy.lib import add_newdoc
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/lib/__init__.py", line 8, in
<module>
from .type_check import *
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/lib/type_check.py", line 11,
in <module>
import numpy.core.numeric as _nx
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/core/__init__.py", line 6,
in <module>
from . import multiarray
ImportError: No such file or directory
I get the same error messages running the cygwin64 python. I've tried
re-directing
msys.../numpy to the numpy ditro that works but come up with the same error:
somewhere above /numpy/ the import module needs to be configured.
