I had left the message in my inbox as a reminder that I should boot up into
Vista at some point and play with Cygwin. But I haven't been there yet (and
probably won't be for at least a couple of weeks). The system I have with
Vista is primarily an XP machine for work and booting down and around to
Vista just isn't an non-intrusive enough task that I can do it quickly and
easily. Beyond that, I don't know diddly about 'gm' so about the only thing
I'm likely to have a chance to do when I get there is run it and see if
things work better or worse for me relative to XP. One can always hope that
I have some inspiration if and when I see a problem but at this point, I
wouldn't recommend holding your breath waiting for me to come up with a
patched version, unless you're looking to set a new world record for breath-
holding. ;-)
