I guess I never told you that I was using "gcc" to do all of this.
When I do the similar thing in Perl it works just fine.
thanks,

I don't know what's wrong but I would check basic things like your PATH.
If you don't have a command.com in your path then system is obviously
not going to be able to run "command".

I don't know what cygwin commands you could be running if you only
installed "the base amount of software". Certainly you couldn't run
'ls' if you didn't install it.

Sure, as long as you stop Cc'ing me directly. I read the cygwin mailing
list. There is no reason to get two copies.
