Folks:

I can't seemed to find any man pages for bash or other documentation.  
I'm having terriable problems is getting my .bat/.sh script working and 
I'm thinking changing shells.  I normally use the same routine for all 
.bat scripts.

    =====backup_e.bat======
echo off
set ENV="/dev/null"
set PATH=C:\cygwinV\bin;%PATH%
SET IS_CYGWIN=true
set HISTSIZE=1200
set HOME="/dev/null"
set CYGWIN=tty
ksh -c echo off
set ENV="/dev/null"
set PATH=C:\cygwinV\bin;%PATH%
SET IS_CYGWIN=true
set HISTSIZE=1200
set HOME="/dev/null"
set CYGWIN=tty
ksh -c "C:/cygwinV/backup_e"

were the bulk of cygwin's work in done by backup_e
until I officially cut over to 1.7.  Now only the backup for "e" is 
working.  Every other batch script is now fainling.

In one batch script, I had to replace a link I used with ksh.  It is 
working now.  In another case, I got permission denied with the target 
of ksh and mode 766.

I'm still playing with this one.  If I can only get back to a template 
that works, I'll be happy.


And the bulk of the cygwin's work is done by
