Hi,
Cygwin newbie, first time poster...
I installed cygwin with the 'pdksh' package. When I try to run issue
anything like the following:
$ typeset -r x=1
I get the error:
pdksh: x: is read only
x has never been set, so this is not true (happens for any identifier,
even just after I start pdksh).
I've googled and searched the mailing list, and I haven't seen any
mention of this problem.
Any solutions/workarounds?
P.S. - I also have a wierd propmt, as seen below... Haven't
researched that, as it is not critical, but if anyone knows offhand...
\[\e]0;\w\a\]\n\[\e[32m\]\u@\h \[\e[33m\]\w\[\e[0m\]\n$ typeset -r x=1
Thanks,
Matt
