Hello Emily,
on this page:
http://settleques.com/index.php/2019/08/23/how-to-install-cygwin-on-windows/
The cygwin installer has change a bit.
Also your missing words or need to rework 3 and 4.
I think you mean append to system variable “PATH” ?
I didn’t setup the user variable, when I run cygwin icon on the desktop and echo $HOME , home is already set ?
Thank you so much for your feedback.
1. Yes, You are correct. I mean append to system variable “PATH”. I have modified the article.
2. Yes. There is a default home directory. In my side, my default home directory is /home/[username]. But there is nothing in this directory.
Indeed, I want to set the directory “C:/Other” (which is my work directory in windows) to home directory. so I can enter this directory directly when I open the Cygwin terminal if I have set “C:/Other” to “HOME” variable.
If I did’t set “HOME” variable. it is OK. but I will be “/home/[username]” when I open the Cygwin terminal. I need to change the directory “/cygdrive/C/OTHER” by manual.
Hope this is useful for you.
