After installation my Windows7 program compatibility application told me that cygwin was not installed correctly, after which I told it to reinstall...and it did but this time the installation was much faster. Hello! Friend what version (so to speak) of Cygwin are you running? How did you install it? For myself, and I suspect that it may not be appropriate for all, I typically run the actual setup program from the website and follow its urging to download itself to a folder, and then install it. Wait for that to happen and finally check to see if the simple program ls for list files works, and then repeat setup, but do so off-line working from the folder. Then repeat to see if the build utilities like Gcc and friends have arrived. That prompt resembles something from the Beta series of Cygwin or perhaps from one of the terminals that doesn't recognize how BASH constructs a (normal) prompt. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg DOT drwho8 AT gmail DOT com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again." -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/%22command-not-found%22-For-All-Commands-tp28722920p28724299.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
