From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: "Jonas Jensen" To: "Cygwin List" Subject: cygwin.bat Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2000 13:48:00 -0000 Message-id: X-SW-Source: 2000-08/msg00513.html I'm wondering why the Cygwin.bat file is still used for new installations. It causes problems with CTRL+C and it leaves a cmd.exe waiting in the background for each Cygwin window opened. It used to set variables, but they're all set in /etc/profile now, although some users still appear to have their old Cygwin.bat... which must mean they get those variables set twice (and that should cause duplications when prepending to $PATH). Why not just point the shortcut directly to bash.exe with the neccesary parameters? -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Send a message to cygwin-unsubscribe@sourceware.cygnus.com
