I think that
REM Mount local user %TEMP% as /tmp
mount -f -u -t "%TEMP%" /tmp
should not work is statxwin.bat is started from a link on desktop or
clicking on it frome Resource Explorer.
%CYGWIN_ROOT%\tmp is c:\cygwin\tmp and not %TEMP%,i.e.
C:\DOCUME~1\'user'~1\IMPOST~1\Temp
It could work only if statxwin.bat is started from a bash shell
(Cygwin.bat)
The solution 'to mount the users own tmp directory as /tmp' should work in
an environment that knows what means 'mount', '/tmp' (like CYGWIN).
Best regards,
Angelo.
