chere and environment variable preparation

chere and environment variable preparation

[Nellis, Kenneth]

Normally, I open a Cygwin terminal window by clicking on a Windows icon 
which is an alias to a .BAT file which prepares environment variables 
for my Cygwin session and then invokes mintty thusly:

start /b C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty -i/Cygwin-Terminal.ico -s80,57 -

Nothing unusual there, but I have come to rely on the chere package, 
which seems to invoke mintty directly, so doesn't prepare my 
environment variables.

Wondering if anyone has solved that problem.

"chere -h"
for the invocation options

I set my environment  variables on  ".bashrc"
