Subject: Environment variable named !:: (exclamation mark + colon + colon)
Date: Sat, 5 Dec 2020 23:24:36 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <552a04ab-86a3-ef03-1c9e-c4d17aff1cd9@gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
I have found an environment variable that has a strange name `!::'
(exclamation mark + colon + colon) on my terminal (both mintty and Tera
Term). The value is also strange, `::\' (colon + colon + backslash).
$ env | sort | head -n 3
!::=::\
_=/usr/bin/env
ALLUSERSPROFILE=C:\ProgramData
Is this an expected environment variable on Cygwin? If so, what is this for?
Best regards,
tzccinct
