(i dont have either of these on various of the computers i have installed cygwin on.) I suppose "ln -s `echo $TEMP` /tmp" would work but i quite like having my cygwin specific temp files in a cygwin specific /tmp. I would have thought this should be a user choice rather than a default. (just my 2 cents or whatever that is in pence these days.) > -----Original Message----- > From: Earnie Boyd [mailto:earnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com] > Sent: 09 December 2002 18:54 > To: Jim > Cc: cygwin-apps AT cygwin DOT com; cygwin AT cygwin DOT com > Subject: Re: /tmp > > > Wrong list, redirected.
