Re: "CYGWIN=wincmdln" does not give me nuts

[ÐÑÑÑ Ð. <satnatantas at gmail dot com>]

However, after assuming that developers are smarter than I am, i found it.

In XP I would have zero problems, but I was using Seven! I created a
per-user variable "CYGWIN" thinking that it will be visible to all
programs.

But operating system thinks otherwise - per-user variables only affect
programs launched under his account.

Programs with elevated priveleges happen to not count because they are
launched with "SYSTEM" account.

You should have asked me about whether "CYGWIN" is visible in the
output of "set" command - it wasn't.


Making CYGWIN a system variable worked as it should.
