Thanks Christopher, that fixed everything. It even fixed a couple of other
problems (such as vi not understanding my terminal and man not working).
I still have the remaining question: if I did an install for "all users"
why are the permissions wrong for all users to use it properly?
Also there was one buggy thing in chmod, which was that it does not appear
to like "/":
$ chmod -R a+r /
chmod: getting attributes of `//bin': No such file or directory
chmod: getting attributes of `//cygwin.bat': No such file or directory
chmod: getting attributes of `//cygwin.ico': No such file or directory
chmod: getting attributes of `//etc': No such file or directory
chmod: getting attributes of `//home': No such file or directory
chmod: getting attributes of `//lib': No such file or directory
chmod: getting attributes of `//packages': No such file or directory
chmod: getting attributes of `//sbin': No such file or directory
chmod: getting attributes of `//tmp': No such file or directory
chmod: getting attributes of `//usr': No such file or directory
chmod: getting attributes of `//var': No such file or directory
Doing "cd / ; chmod -R a+r ." worked.
Thanks again.
