I've had cygwin in my path since the B19 days (that's right, even *be= fore* the infamous B20). I regularly (and almost exclusively) use cygwin to= ols in the command processor; I have a mintty session open, but only use it= when I need to do shell-related things. There's no reason not to have Cygwin in the Windows path, and lots of reaso= ns to do so (grep, cat, tail, head, etc., etc.). -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
