Windows home path

[Bill Pfeiffer]

When I start cygwin from the installed cygwin batch file, it uses
C:\Documents and Settings\username  (where username is my current logged in
windows username) as my home directory.  As I stated before, I can change it
by modifying the HOME env var in the batch file, but this doesn't seem like
a good long term solution.

Thanks,

Bill
