I use many commands like grep, rcs, ecc. on my Windows machine. I run this command not from bash, from the Windows shell (cmd). All work if the commands and dll are in the path. Some times there is a problem. For example rcsdiff call diff. Now, without a mount, the rcsdiff says that /usr/bin/diff is not found even if diff is in the path! Can I configure cygwin so that it reads executables before from system path? This allow me to easy install only necessaries command without double the path both in the enviroment variable and registry. Thanks in advance.
