Hi,
I am a new cygwin user. I am not able to locate the .profile, .login .bashrc
etc bash files, so I can use it to customize bash. I understand from various
installation instruction that I red that the HOME env variable needs to be set
for this. I followed the instructions given in many cygwin guides and install
docs and updated my HOME environment variable both in my Windows system
environment variable tab as
HOME=C:\Documents and Settings\vshastri
And updated in cygwin.bat as follows before starting the bash shell:
@echo off
C:
chdir C:\cygwin\bin
set HOME=C:\Documents and Settings\vshastri
bash --login –i
I verified my update when I printed my environment variables and got the
following (only showing relevant fields):
$ env
!::=::\
!C:=C:\cygwin\bin
ALLUSERSPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\All Users
ANT_HOME=C:\ant-1.6.2
APPDATA=C:\Documents and Settings\vshastri\Application Data
CATALINA_HOME=C:\jakarta-tomcat-5.5.4
COMMONPROGRAMFILES=C:\Program Files\Common Files
….
CVS_RSH=/bin/ssh
FP_NO_HOST_CHECK=NO
HOME=/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/vshastri
HOMEDRIVE=C:
HOMEPATH=\Documents and Settings\vshastri
HOMESHARE=\\nas\users
……
OLDPWD=/cygdrive/c/cygwin/usr/bin
OS=Windows_NT
Despite all these setup, I am still not able to see the creation of .profile,
.login etc
Please Help. How do I setup and access these files so I can ustomize my shell?
Thanks
Well, you have to create files by yourself with your favourite editor.
If you really need basic files:
cp /etc/skel/* ~
chown `echo $USER`: .bash_profile .bashrc .inputrc
