The attached batch file setcygnu.bat is an example to set the necessary
variable and call bash.exe. The other file .bash_profile is needed to be put
in you home directory ( //D/MYDOCU~1/WEI/HOME in my case).
You need to adjust the property of the batch file such that it allocate
enough initial environment memory ( 768 in my case ) so that the set command
won't cause 'out of environment variable space' error.
Hope this help.
Sincerely,
Wei Ku

>I noticed the same, but I found a readme.txt file with the needed variables
in it, I'm just not sure how to incorporate them. I'm using Win95, so I
thought that maybe I would just add the strings in the autoexec.bat in the
following format:
>GCC_EXEC_PREFIX=C:\gnuwin32\b18\H-i386-cygwin32\lib\gcc-lib\
>Obviously, this didn't work. Where exactly do I put the environment
variables? I wish it was more clear, or maybe I'm missing the boat
entirely...... I'm new to the list, please don't flame me away with "We've
already answered this question 5 million times!".
