at brian; you're right. rational rose has changed my environment and cygwin is
confused in believing
that the SHELL was changed to some freak rational product and pointed the HOME
variable to the
windows home path in Documents and Settings (or something. am using the german
windows version, so i
don't really know what perverse translation the germans had used this time to
make it read 'Dokumente
und Einstellungen').
so, where i said that a quick ':set term=cygwin' would solve the problem, it
actually fixed only the
weird output behavior, but my .vimrc settings wouldn't have been read, etc.
Revised solution.
to (hopefully) get it right this time, i edited the cygwin.bat batch file to
say something like:
@echo off
set SHELL=sh
set HOME=c:\cygwin\home\anamtharon
c:
chdir c:\cygwin\bin
bash --login -i
the second and third line should make a temporary fix for the cygwin session
but not alter the
environment which rational rose most surely will be needing.
for my system at least, this seems to work alright.
That's it.
thank you guys for your time and effort.
hope you'll have a nice day, too!
