I've seen a couple of complaints but no real
response to the question: setup.exe used to be (like, last week) real easy to
run and install most things needed, but now it doesn't.
I mean after installing with setup.exe I can't even
run vi! None of the cygwin directories are in the path. Even if I add them to
the path it still can't find vi.
I note that in the new install vim is not default.
I assume there is a difference between vi and 'new improved vi' - vim. The most
important difference being vi IS part of the default environment?
It used to take a brainless cluck to install and
use cygwin. Now you've raised the entry requirement - must have a functional
brain as well as a few clues.
Is there a bug in the setup.exe (not including all
'basic' features). Or does it take a little more knowledge to install cygwin
these days, and where do I get the knowledge? Or is there a recidivist option to
use the previous setup.exe?
