    45 ## Legacy setup instructions for native Windows Emacs
       
    46 
       
    47 Define env var `HOME` like `c:\home`. Emacs will expand path element `~` to that
       
    48 directory and some modes provide shortcuts for quick navigation to that
       
    49 directory.

    51 ### cygwin-mount.el
       
    52 
       
    53 `cygwin-mount.el` teaches Windows Emacs to understand Cygwin paths.
       
    54 
       
    55 In particular setting `INFOPATH` & `MANPATH` using Cygwin's convention allows to
       
    56 read info and man pages from Windows Emacs!
       
    57 
       
    58 Example of `INFOPATH` which works both in Cygwin and native Emacs:
       
    59 
       
    60     INFOPATH=/cygdrive/c/home/usr/share/info:/usr/share/info:/usr/local/share/info:
       
    61 
       
    62 Final sign `:` instructs Cygwin's built-in info viewer to include system paths
       
    63 and native Emacs to include its own info pages.
       
    64 
       
    65 Emacs's `woman.el` and Cygwin's `man` both understand following:
       
    66 
       
    67     MANPATH=:/cygdrive/c/home/usr/share/man:/usr/share/man:/usr/local/share/man
