Subject: Running tcsh in rxvt
Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2001 11:22:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200109131822.OAA21315@cab-calloway.mit.edu> (raw)
What's the best way to do this?
If you do rxvt -e tcsh (say from a shortcut).
The user's dotfile is not parsed (seemingly because home etc. don't get
correctly set from passwd), plus tab completion and history don't work.
I've got:
bash --login -i -c "/bin/rxvt -e tcsh" &
But it seems like there really ought to be a way to avoid the seemingly
unnecessary invocation of bash and having it hanging around afterwards...
Of course:
rxvt -e bash --login -i #from the rxvt documentation
doesn't work properly when invoking from outside of the cygwin environment
either; i.e. not from an exiisting bash --login -i session.
PS> I'm not on the list yet so pleace (b)cc me any replies, Thanks!
