Hi Frodak and All, I created the ~/.bash_profile file (it wasn't even there before!), and tried sourcing ~/.bashrc from it. It still doesn't work. I don't think these files are ever executed during my cygwin session. I don't know whether I use bash or not. I simply installed it from my PC. Is

Can cygstart set the window title?
