Ok, thanks. I can download source and look at it. Do I have it already with the automated default installation procedure? Is there an relationship between http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xns/recv.html and the cygwin implementation of (for example) recv? I thought the purpose of cygwin was to minimize source code changes when porting from unix. Isn't there some documented flavor of unix that cygwin is based on?
