No. You don't. You just need to have, e.g., c:\cygwin\bin in your PATH, as Dave said. I'm not sure why you thought you needed to elaborate on this but there is no need to add a batch script to the equation. It's all about the PATH. This shouldn't be too surprising to anyone with a modicum of experience with either Linux OR Windows. cgf -- 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/
