Debug the skipping of .bashrc when bang out from vim PC version

2012-08-26 Thread Andy
It is often more covenient to use the Windows install of gvim than to fire up Cygwin's X-windows to run the Cygwin version of gvim. In order to be able to bang out to run bash commands, I have this in my vimrc: shell=c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe\ -i This allows me to do things like !!ls or
