%ls /cygdrive/c/Documents\ and\ Settings/d.tang/.bashrc
/cygdrive/c/Documents and Settings/d.tang/.bashrc

Do you spot anything funny going on?

Your prompt and your home directory. Looks like you're not using bash (but zsh maybe) and not using the defaults.

Ah sorry for the confusion, I had modified my PS1 settings (which I could set after manually sourcing .bashrc) so I just put a % for my prompt in the email.


If I start cygwin normally my prompt looks like this:

d.tang@imb09-02635 ~
$

Also

d.tang@imb09-02635 ~
$ echo $SHELL
/bin/bash

d.tang@imb09-02635 ~
$ echo $0
-bash
