i currently develop on a winxp laptop. i use cygwin
and my pgsql version is 7.4.x (x=3, maybe?).
i have to manually start up apache and pgsql. i'm
spending some time learning linux. i found that i
could edit my .bash_profile so i don't have to type
the path to cygserver every time i tried to start it.
i'd like to do something similar when using pg_ctl to
start and stop the postmaster.
i read the the help files for pg_ctl and it said
PGDATA was the default if there was no -D flag and
then a directy path to the data directory.
i want to set PGDATA path to my DATA directory, but i
can't find PGDATA on my system.
can anyone help here?
tia...
