I've had more time to look around. If you add the following to the file ~/.config/fish/config.fish (create it if you haven't already got one), then things should work as intended:On 07/04/2014 13:02, Ronald Fischer wrote:I have installed fish 2.1.0. Works fine, when invoking a new fish shell manually. However, when doing a chere -ifcm -t mintty -s fish and invoke the new fish shell from the Windows Explorer context menu, I get plenty of error messages, like this: <snip> (more of this kind follow). This looks like there is a problem the PATH, but this happens even when I use the -2 on chere when installing the shell. Note that bash or zsh shells installed via cygwin work fine.Thanks for the report.I've just checked my x86_64 and x86 installation. Things are working on my installation as I have c:\cygwin\bin on my standard windows path. When I remove it and invoke fish, I get the errors that you highlight. Similarly when echo'ing $PATH under the broken fish, /usr/bin is not one of the entries.I need to have a play around to see how I can fix this, but I thought cygwin prepended /usr/bin to the path...
if status --is-login set PATH /usr/local/bin /usr/bin $PATH endAlternatively drop it in the fish global startup file, /usr/share/fish/config.fish. Konrad, would you consider adding the above fragment to config.fish in the next release? That should bring fish into line with the other shells*. You might also consider adding some of the other environment variables like PRINTER etc etc.
Thanks, Dave. --- * FYIBash gets /usr/local/bin and /usr/bin prefixed to its path by /etc/profile (supplied by base-files)
mksh and posh also use /etc/profile tcsh gets these prefixed by /etc/csh.login (supplied by tcsh) zsh uses /etc/zprofile (supplied by zsh) -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
