I fixed it a while back but the changes over the last few days broke it aga= in (which made me remember I had done it, which then made me tell you :-). I still use KSH (generally pdksh) and there is a problem with how this file= is setting PS1.=20 Basically, the escapes aren't working right (in XWindows at the very least). So I have now changed it to say:=20 case "${KSH_VERSION}" in *MIRBSD*KSH* ) PS1=3D$(print '^[]0;${PWD}\n^[[32m${USER}@${HOSTNAME} ^[[33m${PWD/${HOM= E}/~}^[[0m\n$ ') ;; *PD*KSH* ) PS1=3D$(print '^[]0;${PWD}\n^[[32m${USER}@${HOSTNAME} ^[[33m${PWD}^[[0m= \n$ ') ;; esac Please note, ^[ means I have done CTRL-V + ESC. Also, MKSH and PDKSH need different settings, as PDKSH doesn't seem to have= the ${name/pattern/replacement} syntax. Thanks for all the work on this, CYGWIN is an excellent tool!
