Hi Phil,
thanks for reminding - I didn't see it because I expected cygwin to do 
the translation like it does within programs because of the ' '

But you're right. I was concentration more on his XWin dosn't start :)
He should append his new paths at the end of the statement anyway imo. 
So if he messes something up the rest of cygwin will still work.


export PATH="${PATH}:${G4INSTALL}/bin/${G4SYSTEM}:/cygdrive/c/Program 
Files/Java"

i had an error in attached file using cygwin.
would you mind answering how i can solve this problem ?

--
1. i set erroneous PATH statement in .bashrc :
  export PATH='c:/Program Files/Java':$/{PATH}
  :{G4INSTALL}/bin/${G4SYSTEM} 2. start cygwin and $ startx
   



In cygwin, the colon is used to separate path elements, so 
c:/Program Files/Java actually adds two paths "c" and 
"/Program Files/Java", neither of which you want.


Instead what you need is the Posix path which will be 
"/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Java"


e.g.:
export PATH="/cygdrive/c/Program
Files/Java:${PATH}:${G4INSTALL}/bin/${G4SYSTEM}"

(assuming that ${G4INSTALL}/bin/${G4SYSTEM} is a valid Posix path)
