- Subject: mintty functionality
I am attempting to create a desktop icon for cygwin based applicatin.
I am using
mkshortcut and mintty with the program to be invoked's name as am argument to mintty.
The problem I'm encountering is that the applicatin that mintty is to run requires
/usr/lib/lapack which is not in PATH when invoked from the desktop. I know I can do the windows thing to set a full microsoft windows PATH, but would prefer to keep it in the shortcut or in a mintty configuration file.
In essence I want to apprend to the PATH environment variable the needed library path.
Can this be done a.) with makshortcut or b.) with mintty. I couldn't find any reference in h ow to in the documentation.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Regards
