Hi All...

I understand Corinna's pointer to the System Environment, but...

1) I have problems putting C:\Cygwin\bin first on the path because it breaks 
other things. I have C:\Cygwin\bin there, just not first.

2) Why is the path set differently for interactive login vs. command 
execution?

3) I believe this is different behavior than I have seen in the past.

Thanks,

...Karl
