This *is* the beginners list. The experts list is cygwin-developers. I'm afraid that the call for a "beginners-list" springs from a desire to get rid of all the "stupid questions", which is generally defined as "everybody-else's question but mine". If we define a still-more-beginner's list, it will be a write-only list. > The amount of traffic on this list is *very* (see? not shouting) overwhelming, and I for one am a complete Unix > newbie trying to makes sense of a *lot* of > new information. Try http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-09/ (or http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2002-10) It works great for me. -- ---------------- Thomas Mellman thomas AT mellman DOT net ______________________________________________________________________________ Den Komfort von WEB.DE FreeMail nutzen, aber die alten E-Mail-Adressen nicht aufgeben?
