Re: win32::api on cygwin

Dan, Sorry if you posted this to the list and I didn't reply. I have had very little time to keep up with the Cygwin list lately. I have uploaded Reini's version of Win32::API to a http server. http://www.btinternet.com/~jasebob.pearce/cygwin/Win32-API-0.42.tar.gz There is also the cygwin pac

bash not running bash_profile or bashrc

I recently deleted c:\cygwin and my package repository and then installed cygwin again using the latest setup.exe. The first xterm that gets fired up with startxwin.bat correctly runs .bash_profile. However, if I start another xterm from that xterm, neither .bash_profile nor .bash_rc is run.
