Interesting. I guess you're not interested then. What a shame.

Actually I rarely use Cygwin anymore as I now use Linux itself. Still I 
find it a very useful set of tools that often is helpful in work 
situations where people insist on using Windows then get stuck on how to 
accomplish things in the Windows world that have been solved long ago in 
the Linux/Unix world. As such I always proclaim the usefulness of Cygwin 
in such situations as I believe in giving credit where credit is due. I 
don't believe in keeping secret good software rather I think such 
software should be promoted at every opportunity. I think this would be 
a good opportunity to do so but apparently at least Corinna doesn't seem 
to feel that way. I almost feel I should apologize for trying to help 
but when I think about that I think it silly.

Why are cigarettes sold in gas stations when you can't smoke there?
