I've added /cygdrive/c/program\ files/notepad++ to my path in .bash_profile, double checking with echo to make sure that the directory is in the path. But when I type "notepad++.exe" or "notepad++" I get "bash: notepad++: command not found". I did restart the terminal before testing to make sure that .bash_profile was loaded and path was updated. Is there something I'm doing wrong here or is this a bug?
That would be: /cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/notepad++ -- assuming that's a *folder* that contains notepad++.exe ... Note that path (written PATH, and generally exported) contains folder names separated by colons. To add to the end you can do: export PATH="$PATH:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/notepad++" Note: no \ in front of space inside the quotes.
