Problem with ~

[Colm Aengus Murphy]

Hi folks,

I've installed the latest version of Cygiwn (1.3.9) last friday 
(15-Feb-02) and my environment no longer works as it did before.
(the last time I downloaded was 13-Nov-01 Cygwin 1.3.5.2)

Specifically the ~ behaviour is "broken".

my .tchsrc contains the line:
source ~$user/.alias
This no longer works for some reason.

cd ~ gives me
~: No such file or directory.

$HOME is set and /home is mounted correctly.

The behaviour I expect is that
cd ~$user will take me to /home/user
and
cd ~ will take me to $HOME.

If anyone has any suggestions on how I might fix this, I would be grateful.

Cheers

Colm A
