I am trying to set my PATH and HOME in cygwin. Under the /etc/profile file it
says to change the bashrc.bash file and I have amended this but still no
change. I also see there is a .bash_profile file in both
the /etc/defaults/etc/skel and /etc/skel. I originally thought that this is the
file I would amend but I expected this to be in my home directory. Any
suggestions?
Processing of bash startup files is rather complicated. It depends on
how it was called and with what options. You should view man or info
pages for bash, section about startup files.
