Re: Where to put .bash (and .ksh)?

about .bash:
1. HOME must be defined before bash run. ex: put the following line in
the batch file you use to initial the cygwin32:
HOME=C:\WINNT\PROFILES\ADMINISTRATOR
2. It make life easier ( to me) to redefine HOME in .bash like the
following:
export HOME=//C/WINNT/PROFILES/ADMINISTRATOR
Hope this will help.
Sincerely,
Wei Ku
