Sorry for inaccuracy, I wanted to write: Cygwin application has environment variable for each drive letter to remember current DIRECTORY. Here is example: !C:=C:\Program Files\cygwin\bin !L:=L:\home\kudrna\test\z !S:=S:\ !T:=T:\ > FWIW, the environment variables you speak of come from Windows. I'm not sure where those variables come from. But if the program is compiled with -mno-cygwin those variables do not appear. Do you mean that the variables are present but hidden in that case?
