Want to remove some uwanted values and the reset the entire above string to following
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/cygdrive/c/Windows/system32:/cygdrive/c/Windows:/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/Wbem:/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Java/jdk1.7.0/bin:/cygdrive/c/apache-maven-3.1.1/bin:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/TortoiseSVN/bin
How can I do this ? Please guide.
All the cygdrive paths are automatically added from your windows path by cygwin.
This sed command will append a line to the end of .bashrc to set your PATH:
sed -i '$a\PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/cygdrive/c/Windows/system32:/cygdrive/c/Windows:/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/Wbem:/cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Java/jdk1.7.0/bin:/cygdrive/c/apache-maven-3.1.1/bin:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/TortoiseSVN/bin"' .bashrc
