Hello,
Could you help me with the following two problems I have when using
cygnus, which I just installed.
When I click on a cygnus bash shell icon, I get a window which looks
like ms-dos window. The grey bar on top of the window has character
~. Inside the window, right a line before the prompt $, I have a
message in green font saying:
I have no name!@TOWW5076 ~
Questions.
1. How can I get rig of the message?
2. How can I set the prompt $ to be something like the dos prompt
that shows something like directory/subdirectory> ?
Alternatively,
3. How can I display the directory path instead of the character ~ on
the top of the window?
Thank you.
-James
