...Revised solution (version 2). New cygwin.bat file:
@echo off set SHELL=sh set HOME=c:\cygwin\home\anamtharon set TERM=cygwin
Now that's it.
Not quite it!
Rational can also add these to your environment: TERMCAP=C:\PROGRA~1\RATIONAL\RATION~1\NUTCROOT\etc\termcap TERMINFO=C:\PROGRA~1\RATIONAL\RATION~1\NUTCROOT\usr\lib\terminfo
So I added this in my cygwin batch file as well. SET TERMCAP=/etc/termcap SET TERMINFO=/usr/share/terminfo
Another annoying thing is with Rational Common in your path, autotooled projects find a program called hostinfo which pops up a windows dialog box during auto configuraton. The fall back position I think is hostname. Now I consulted man pages on hostinfo and I can't really tell you the difference between what hostinfo and hostname output.
I created a softlink in the cygwin bin directory. ln -s /bin/hostname hostinfo
I cannot tell whether this is correct or not as I don't have access to a system that has a real hostinfo to compare the output.
It didn't appear to cause problems for the autotooled projects as they had properly discovered my hostname.
And not to mention Rational Test has a perl.exe in it's directory making the number of perls on my machine 4 in number . *sigh*
