One question re the setup window: what does the radio button that 
offers a choice between DOS and UNIX defaults actually do? I set the 
button to UNIX for my windows installation because Cygwin is supposed 
to be a Unix system, right? On the other hand vim complained because 
some scripts had ^Ms all over the place! Those must be DOS files I 
think. (And by the way gvim was trashed as far as running shell 
commands was concerned).

(Why is this all so difficult?)

C.
