Subject: TMP and TMPDIR mapping

Hi

 

My understanding is that Cygwin maps $TMP and $TMPDIR (and probably others)
to a Windows form (/cygdrive/c/tmp  -> C:\tmp) when calling a WIN32 program
(e.g. cmd.exe). Is it possible, from bash or from Cygwin startup , to add
additional environment variable names so that they  are also automatically
mapped in the same way?

 

Thanks

/John
