I have the latest version of cygwin installed on my home PC and on a
laptop and b20.1 (upgrade pending) on a PC at work. All of these have UK
keyboards and have the same three lines in the autoexec.bat file. On all
three machines the | character works just fine. Sorry Sagar but the
cause of your problem is not the UK keyboard.
All of these three machines are running W95b.
