bash 2.01/cygwin.dll problems

Tibor,
You need to ensure that your .bashrc and .vimrc are UNIX like
files and not DOS. That is, each line must be terminated only
by a line feed, not a CR/LF as in DOS. This should fix your
problems. A command such as this will do the trick:
 tr -d '\\r' < .bashrc > .bashrc.tmp
If the text looks funny in Notepad, then the command succeeded.

For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to
"gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
