You're saying that all she had to do was build tcsh from the original sources, then link with automode.o? Are there any exceptions to the text in, binary out general rule? Also, is automode.o only useful for linking with C code (not C++), as binmode.obj is? cheers, -Matt > > I don't understand the question. automode.o (poor choice of name and subject > to change) defaults file operations to textmode input and binary mode output. > It is similar in operation to Microsoft's binmode.obj. > > It doesn't affect pipes. Those are binmode by default. > > cgf -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
