Subject: Lost Screen, Prompt, & Win Program Menu Choices
Message-ID: <3A58C309.28551.4BCC4E@localhost>

Yesterday I installed Cygwin & somehow it interfered with a 
separate installation of Octave for Windows (with its own Cygwin) 
on the same drive.  All is well again, except that my startup screen 
for Cygwin has a bash prompt rather than a prompt with 
Administrator in it (as I recall.)  The previous screen had color and 
looked better.  I wonder how to get it back.  

I also note that when I go to the start button in Windows and click 
on Cygnus Solutions there is only one alternative -- bash prompt.  I 
think there used to be three or four.  

I tried to run setup again to add whatever was missing, but I got a 
message saying there was nothing (more) to install.

Thanks for any suggestions!
