Re: Newbie Question



I didn't know you could do that - thanks for the tip! :-)

It would be nice if Cygwin didn't install those standard command.com bash
icons on the desktop or at least gave a few more pointers (suggestions)  to
using the rxvt package as a replacement - I just had a play with it and it
seems to be rather good indeed... gone are my msdos'd bash days...
