Re: mintty functionality

David, thanks for your advice. It didn't run right off the bat, but with some proper single and double quoting. The fact that env takes a command as an argument is what enabled it to work. Cheers. > > The normal way works and even > >$ PATH=${PATH}: mintty cmd > > > > The command
