set HOME environment

set HOME environment

[Guansong Zhang]

Hi,

I used to used the following line to set HOME and CYGWIN in bash.bat

set HOME=%USERPROFILE%
set CYGWIN=tty ntea

So I don't need to use mouse click to change env

I don't know when bash.bat is changed to use --login -i

but it will be a problem if my system dir is not C: it seems bash can not
set the HOME in this case.

I modify the bat to this, (in this case e: is my system drive)

@echo off

set HOME=%USERPROFILE%
set CYGWIN=tty ntea

rem e:
rem chdir \cygwin\bin

chdir /d %USERPROFILE%

e:\cygwin\bin\bash --login -i

I still get

[: too many arguments
bash: cd: /cygdrive/e/Documents: No such file or directory

As error message. but everything else seems OK. Hope no one need to do this
change next time.

Cheers,

Guansong

Clear.exe location?

[Matt Minnis]

Where is the location of the code that gets built & becomes 'clear.exe'?

I got the CVS of cygwin, and I am willing to track down the beast that 
doesn't clear the screen buffer under NT in cmd.exe.
I just can't locate this part.  Can someone who is familiar with the source 
tell me where to find it, or at least where to look?

Thanks,

Matt Minnis

Get clear-1.0-src.tar.gz and you'll see that the entire archive
consists of this simple program:

main()
{
  write (1, "\033[1;1H\033[2J", 10);
  return 0;
}
