Hi Larry, >> http://www.bioinformatics.org/strap/ which uses Cygwin. Cygwin >> My problem: I need to specify the Web-proxy. > Sounds like you want Cygwin 1.7's setup.exe -> <http://cygwin.com/setup-1.7.exe> Yes, that is what I need. It is great! There is also the text search field that I missed so many years! Why is it not yet the default setup.exe? I would prefere a stable URL without the version number in the URL, something like http://cygwin.com/setup-current.exe Otherwise my program would need to probe several URLs with increasing version number. Using this improved setup.exe there would be only one user interaction left: The user needs to mark the closest mirror. I do not think that this could be done automatically at the moment or what do you think? Many thanks again Christoph -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
