Subject: Re: Prelease of cygwin-1.1.3-1
References: <20000726141532 DOT A30991 AT cygnus DOT com> <20000726180507 DOT A2023 AT cygnus DOT com> <397F7947 DOT F5460610 AT veritas DOT com> <20000726213521 DOT A5764 AT cygnus DOT com> <39806EEC DOT D01B0015 AT veritas DOT com>

I have now installed from the internet the full cygwin-1.1.2 using
setup.exe, followed  by testing, then done a local install of the test
tarball for 1.1.3, with testing.

Both the new desktop shortcut to cygwin.bat and my original shortcut
using Charles Wilson's 'run.exe' worked as I expected with 1.1.2, with
the full MS environment being visible.

When I installed the 1.1.3 cygwin tarball, the batch file startup still
worked as expected, with the full env available, but my shortcut does
not.  The environment it prints includes only the following:

BC_ENV_ARGS=-q
CDPATH=.:/usr/bob:/
EDITOR=/usr/local/bin/vim
EXINIT=set ai sm sw=4 terse noshowmode
HOSTNAME=ramjr
HOSTTYPE=i586
MACHTYPE=i586-pc-cygwin
OSTYPE=cygwin
PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/contrib/bin:/drv/c/winnt/system32:/drv/c/winnt:.
PROMPT_COMMAND=xtitle "@ramjr    " "$PWD"
PS1=[ramjr]$ 
PWD=/usr/bob
SHELL=/bin/sh
SHLVL=1
TERM=cygwin
TERMINFO_DIRS=/contrib/share/terminfo
_=/bin/env

I'm not sure why the 3 instances of /usr/bin in the PATH, but that is
the only strange thing I see.
