Thanks, Bob. That's the way I expected it to work.
I was just unsure of whether there was something
cygwin-specific, as it seems strange that something
like HOSTNAME is not marked for export at the time

Fred, perhaps this will help:
echo $TEST # Test has no value, hence the blank line.
$ TEST=noexport # Set but not exported
$ echo $TEST

$ export TEST # Export it.
$ env|grep TEST # And now it's found in the environment.
TEST=noexport
$ TEST=s

Hello,
I'm using cygwin bash 2.05b-8 (it's actually gnu).
I thought that $HOSTNAME was an environment
variable. When I run gnu make (I'm pretty
sure this is not a make problem), $(HOSTNAME)
is empty. It gets fixed if I do "export HOSTNAME"
before running make.
Is there a way to check if the exp
