I'm using cygwin v1.3.18 under Windows XP Professional. Unfortunately bash 2.05b-8 does not exectute my startup script ~/.bashrc -- I have to manually run it every time I start a new cygwin window.

I defined environement variable HOME as "d:\" using windows control panel. I also copy my .bashrc file to cygwin / directory. None of this works.

I also tried to use it under Windows 2000 Professional. The same problem happened.
Try this:

$ mv ~/.bashrc ~/.bash_login
