Howdy and thanks for the response!

I have changed ROOTDIR so it is now "C:\cygwin" but I am still getting these
problems:

When I run Cygwin it is putting me in a home directory of "/cygdrive/c" (not
my user directory) and some of my commands are not working. For example:
Robert Mark Bram AT DIJONG ~
$ pwd
/cygdrive/c

Robert Mark Bram AT DIJONG ~
$ man ls | less
WARNING: terminal is not fully functional
-  (press RETURN)


Any other ideas please!!??

Rob
:)

| So what do I do? It seems that both Rose and Cygwin want to use rootdir,
and
| Cygwin has a hard time using Rose's version.

Well then set the global ROOTDIR to what cygwin want... And well if
Rose doesn't like that.. blame rose ;-)

Or edit the batch-file that fires up bash and set ROOTDIR to what
cygwin wants there, or do it the other way around for Rose..
