From: wdkirby@ix.netcom.com (William D Kirby) Subject: cygwin b20 bash path usage? 10 Nov 1998 12:35:09 -0800 Message-ID: <3647A87A.AE660CB7.cygnus.gnu-win32@ix.netcom.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: "gnu-win32@cygnus.com" I made the mistake of creating and trying to use an exectable named test.exe. under bash v2.02 in the cygwin beta 20 package. Nothing happened when it executed. I suspect that bash was executing the program test.exe in the cygwin-b20\bin directory rather my test.exe in the directory I was using. Is this proper behavior in bash? I assumed the directory being worked in was searched first then along the PATH directory list. Bill -- William D.
