Category: MSYS Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Cesar Strauss (cstrauss) Assigned to: Cesar Strauss (cstrauss) Summary: CYGWIN environment variable should not affect MSYS Initial Comment: Users may possibly use the CYGWIN variable to customize their CYGWIN installations. MSYS should not be affected by this. Example: In a CMD shell, run: > set CYGWIN= > c:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys $ /c/Windows/SysWOW64/ftp.exe ftp> quit $ exit Now, set the CYGWIN variable to tty: > set CYGWIN=tty > c:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys $ /c/Windows/SysWOW64/ftp.exe qut $ exit Notice the absence of the ftp prompt. See also: ^C (CONTROL+C) ignored when CYGWIN=tty set https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2817021&group_id=2435&atid=302435 If we really want to keep a variable for customizing MSYS, it should have another name, like MSYS_CONFIG. Also, we should review the options which are truly useful for MSYS.
