From: zow@mdbs.com (Zow Terry Brugger) Subject: ~ arg 20 Feb 1998 00:22:48 -0800 Message-ID: <01BD3CFF.3F10BAF0.zow.cygnus.gnu-win32@mdbs.com> Reply-To: "zow@mdbs.com" Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: "GNU-WIN32 Mailing List (E-mail)" Just found an interesting little problem: ~ maps to my home directory alright, but it just uses the name of my directory as a filename. I have HOME set to /homes/zow so when I do: cp foo.c ~ it copies the file to a file named homeszow in the same directory. Do I have something set up wrong, is this a known problem (that someone possibly has a patch for?), or should I go wade through the bash source? TIA, Terry - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
