Hi again,

Is it wise to replace the default cmd.exe with bash in NT?

"Old" bat-files will work okay regardless, don't they?

And is the correct registry-setting for this:
\localmachine\system\currencontrolset\control\session
manager\environment\comspec?

Maybe this subject could make it into the FAQ sometimes...


Regards
Stein
