Hello, I have been using Cygwin for about a year now, with no problems. Until
one day I loaded it up and instead of the usual interface I had, it just
said bash-3.2$, no username, or directory or anything, and none of the unix
commands work.

Anyway, I reinstalled Cygwin, and after editing my PATH variable, I still
have the bash-3.2$, but ls and other unix commands work. However, gcc, g++
and other packages I installed do not work. I made sure that gcc.exe was
found, as well as g++.exe and the other packages I installed. Xemacs load,
but it provides a warning asking if it is "in a strange place?" Does anyone
know how I can get my packages to work?

Also, if anyone could tell me how to get the other interface back,
user AT computer_name, and having the directory I am in as the command prompt,
like C:\cygwin > , that would be great. Thanks in advance.
