I can't think of any reason why CHERE_INVOKING > would be converted to lowercase. How did you verify that that is > what's happening? By doing the change to .profile I told about in my first message, i.e. downcase the name in the check: if [ ! -z "${chere_invoking}" ]; then unset CHERE_INVOKING else cd "${HOME}" fi However today it works the opposite to my surprise. (So I have doubled the check right now.) The only change I know I have made to Cygwin at the moment is installing Ruby (and thereby running an update of Cygwin) and trying to do "gem install xmlparse" which fails with w32 Ruby (unfortunately it also fails under Cygwin Ruby for me). > Also, cygcheck output as requested at http://cygwin.com/problems.html > might provide clues.
