I usually tell users to *always* run the latest setup, rather than keeping a local copy of setup. However, setup.ini keeps track of what the latest version of setup is, and if a new one is available on cygwin.com, your old version of setup will tell you. You'd still have to go to cygwin.com and click on the setup icon to get it. -- Want to unsubscribe from this list? Check out: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
