Now boys and girls, let's not see any more of those
sad faces. Let's see *happy* faces. Come on, you
can do it....
Actually the fault was mine for messing up the way I
said to make the link in my first message. Evidently
the test things I was doing hadn't used /bin/sh.
If the soft link isn't working, the best thing to do is
to use bash to go to /bin:
cd /bin
delete everything in that directory (there should only
be one or two things there):
rm *
and then go to explorer and instead of making a link
to sh.exe in the Cygwin folder, just copy the sucker
over to wherever you've got /bin.
The only reason I was fooling around with making
links in the first place was to conserve disk space.
You're 99% there.
I'll go back and check over the instructions just to
be sure I hadn't typed anything in there that assumed
too much Unix shell experience.
