Subject: New BASH need help.
Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2001 08:26:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <OF27D385AB.AD349637-ON85256B06.006135AC@raleigh.ibm.com> (raw)

I just today (11/16/2001) upgraded my bash to whatever the current version
is. Now the '\w $' prompt
is showing stuff like:

programs/wget/./wget-1.7/..

The same prompt string display just fine on RH 7.2. Can someone tell me
what's going on?
Why is the garbage in the $PWD variable?

Ed Bradford

PS

bash --version shows:
GNU bash, version 2.05a.0(1)-release (i686-pc-cygwin)
