Typing cd by itself takes you to your home dir. It will not create a
file.

You have a couple options on the path thing.

One is to edit the .profile file in your home dir 'nano .profile' or
issue the command "export
PATH=$PATH:/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/bin"
Which only only remain effective until you log out.

The best thing to do is to put that path in your .profile which is
loaded each time you login.

Note: This applies to Linux itself, but cygwin should be similar.

I have installed cygwin via the instructions at,
http://www.lintronix.com/winxastir/ and have started following the
instructions at,
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/xastir/xastir/README.wi
n32?&view=auto
but I do not understand what it means to find or create a .profile file
by typeing cd in the bash window. Nothing happens when I type CD. and
where is the nano editor? and what does it mean to export
PATH=$PATH:/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/bin?
