-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
at the moment (wingrass64svn, wingrass65svn, wingrass70svn) wingrass-
commandline (msys and cmd) points to the installation directory.

there were some request to change this, i.e. to "windows home".

there are a few possible windows environment variables which could be
selected:

(http://www.vistaonwindows.com/environment_variables.php)

{{{
[...]
%HOMEDRIVE% C:
%USERPROFILE% C:\Users\{username}
[...]
}}}

attached patches for wingrass64svn, wingrass65svn, wingrass70svn to have
the command line point to %USERPROFILE%.

best regards
Helmut

p.s. my own favourite would be %HOMEDRIVE%

any comments?

best regards
Helmut
