Title
Body
I have windows, using Cygwin, trying to set JAVA_HOME permanently through my .bashrc file. .bashrc: export PATH="$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH" export JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_HOME:"/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Java/jdk1.7.0_05" .bash_profile: if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then source ~/.bashrc fi running cygwin: -bash: $'\377\376if': command not found -bash: $'then\r': command not found : No such file or directorysu//.bashrc -bash: /cygdrive/c/Users/jhsu//.bash_profile: line 3: syntax error near unexpected token `fi' -bash: /cygdrive/c/Users/jhsu//.bash_profile: line 3: `fi' I am not sure if I took the commands from a tutorial that was meant for another system or if I am missing a step. Or whitespace is causing my commands not to run properly. I've looked at multiple similar questions but I haven't found one where the question has my error exactly. My home path: $ echo $HOME /cygdrive/c/Users/jhsu $ echo ~ /cygdrive/c/Users/jhsu/ So I believe the files should be placed in the correct spot.
