Hi, i'd like to use cygwin from a normal windows-app. The problem is, that i need a login-shell, so that all environment-vars are properly set. The problem: bash -li always changes the current workdir!
IMHO, executing "bash -li" shouldn't change the workdir. No other system i know does that. Script may rely on that behaviour. /etc/profile contains the like cd "$HOME" That line cannot easily be removed. Starting the Cygwin-Link installed by the setup wouldn't cd to ~ anymore. This behaviours is liked by most users i guess (including my own). Any suggestions, how the situation could be improved? -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
