I have read this old post (*): https://sourceforge.net/p/msys2/mailman/message/34734957
where the suggestions to create the user home seem to work but I notice that the prompt still use the Windows user. More precisely: Suppose one adds db_home: /home/John_Done then it creates /home/John_Done, i.e. $ echo $HOME /home/John_Done and this is good, very good. But the prompt still shows angelo@Vega MSYS ~ and not John_Done@Vega MSYS ~ i.e. $ echo $USER angelo Is there a trick to do the same with USER, so that it prints: $ echo $USER John_Done ? (a similar trick should also be valid to change the computer name, Vega -> Moon, or the group, None -> John_Done, if possible). Thanks, Angelo. --- (*) The author should give more details how to create his portable environment and you should add them to your Wiki. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Msys2-users mailing list Msys2-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/msys2-users
