to be a bit more precise...
Once a variable is set in a shell window it stays set for that window.
However it does not carry over to other invocations of the shell.
To do that, you want to put the export command in a startup script.
The main such script is cygwin/etc/profile, but this will also
execute a 'personal' script in your home directory, usually
something like $HOME/.bash_profile. It's a better idea to change
the personal one.
If you have trouble sleeping, try typing "man bash" sometime.

*Subject:* [Tinyos-help] MOTECOM environmental varable.
Dear Sir,
How often do we need to set the MOTECOM environmental variable by the
command
export [EMAIL PROTECTED]:mica2 <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:mica2> in
the cygwin shell
Is it needed to set the above on every program download on mica2 ?
