I assume that taking out c:/cygwin would take care of the situations
in which cygwin is installed elsewhere.
Interesting that
let &shell='c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe
\ --rcfile /home/'.$USERNAME.'/.bashrc -i'
works but
let &shell='c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe
\ --rcfile /home/$USERNAME/.bashrc -i'
does not. If I do
!!echo $USERNAME
bash returns the correct username comes back. That would seem to
indicate that the 2nd shell setting above should work too. A mystery
for another day...
