Hi All,

Or perhaps I should say "Hello again".  Some of you here may remember
me from an earlier time when I was active on this list.

I have a project that has been assuming Cygwin as a base environment
for some extensive bash scripting, but some on the project think that
is just too much baggage.  Remembering my DJGPP experiences, I offered
to come back here and see if DJGPP could help us out.

There are a few utility programs that we are using that do not seem to
have yet been ported to DJGPP.  Can you tell me if there is anyone
working on porting these tools, or who may have already done some work
in that direction?

clear, file, mktemp, mc, netcat

TIA for any info or help you can provide.

Peter J. Farley III
