Hello there
Indeed, I am very new with CYGWIN.... The problem is whenever I click to open
the black window of CYGWIN (seems unix window), it just opens for less than a
fraction of a second and then it closes down.
Can you help me to solve this problem..
Thanks
Falah

> APR and APR-util, portability and miscellaneous utility libraries,

> The 0.9.x branch of APR, used by httpd 2.0.x and Subversion 1.x is in an
> unpleasant limbo between being a subdirectory of the httpd source code, and
> an independent project in it's own right. Releases of APR itself have been
> annoyingly sporadic, leading to non-httpd clients of the library (such as
> Subversion) adopting the practice of treating "whatever is in the apache

> release - if that ever actually happens. Hence, this package identifies
> itself as "0.9.5_2.0.52", the apr 0.9.5 development version as snapshotted
> in the httpd-2.0.52 release.
