Hi,

I used to used the following line to set HOME and CYGWIN in bash.bat

set HOME=%USERPROFILE%
set CYGWIN=tty ntea

So I don't need to use mouse click to change env

I don't know when bash.bat is changed to use --login -i

but it will be a problem if my system dir is not C: it seems bash can not
set the HOME in this case.

I modify the bat to this, (in this case e: is my system drive)

@echo off

set HOME=%USERPROFILE%
set CYGWIN=tty ntea

rem e:
rem chdir \cygwin\bin

chdir /d %USERPROFILE%

e:\cygwin\bin\bash --login -i

I still get

[: too many arguments
bash: cd: /cygdrive/e/Documents: No such file or directory

As error message. but everything else seems OK. Hope no one need to do this
change next time.

Cheers,

Guansong
