Subject: Use of SHELL env var by login
Date: Mon, 26 Sep 2016 20:53:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ae3654ca-c23d-975b-61e2-b7edebb3fc6d@raelity.com> (raw)
I just moved the cygwin installation. The "last" peculiarity I ran into
was that the login shell, with the shortcut "F:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe
-i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico -", a ps showed
/cygdrive/c/cygwin64/bin/bash
instead of /usr/bin/bash
I tracked this down the the windows setting for SHELL, the one you get
to from windows' SystemProperties dialog, which was
C:/cygwin64/bin/bash. The /etc/passwd file specifies /bin/bash.
Is this expected behavior? (Though I can see why SHELL is there and I'd
need to change it)
