Hi all,

I'll try to be clear!

I'm using cygwin32 b19.1 and have installed it on my D: drive
(D:\Cygnus\B19).

I use also a lot of packages like: egcs, gas, perl, python, miktex,
autoconf, man, vim and so on.
So, I have to install them somewhere in the windows tree.
But, I'll have to add a lot of paths to my PATH variable environment.

I remember that in unix, you have a short PATH variable environment
(like: PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin???).

So, I would like to build a unix-like tree files.

Under cygnus, It can be done for example by mounting device or
directories to get something like unix tree files.

For example:
D:\Cygnus\B19\H-i386-cygwin32 mount as /bin unix-like directories,
C:\texmf\MiKTeX\bin mount as /usr/local/bin ???

Is it possible???
How to to that???
I know it's a big question.

Thanks for your suggestions,
Dominique.
