RE: Where is the manual for export(bash)

Alternatively, you can do man bash, search for export (/export) then skip to the next occurrence (n) a few times until you find the main entry. Resulting text is much the same as in 'help export', but it's sometimes nice to see the text in context in the man page, and it's always nice to have more

Try 'help export'. The cygwin bash package is vanilla GNU, which IIRC does not include man pages for builtins. On Tue, 11 May 2004 21:39:35 -0700, Peng Yu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > "No manual entry for export" is displayed, when I "man export". > But export man entry is available on other li

Thank you for you script. I don't change $HOME, $VIM, $VIMRUNTIME in cygwin, because I'm afraid there are some potential conflicts. Do I have to worry about that.
