- Subject: Setting $HOME ?
I was running CygWin for a while and all was nice.
One day, I ran CygWin and it did not start me in the correct $HOME directory.
Checking env, both $HOME and $HOMEPATH are wrong. How are those set?
Manually setting the two in the cygwin.bat doesn't get it to run
%HOMEPATH%/.bashrc on login.
Changing the chdir in the batch file fixes $HOME but not $HOMEPATH and
also doesn't get .bashrc to run.
Tried `id -un` and checking etc/passwd. Looks right.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
