Nasser ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Sandefur" To: Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2001 5:03 AM Subject: cygwin on XP Hi- For about a month I have been running cygwin on Release candidate 1 from MSDN professional subscriptions, cygwin works for me so far but I only use the shell, shell scripts, awk and sed on a regular basis (gcc and g77 are okay as far as I have used them) and the cygwin installer happly updated my windows XP cygwin carry over from 2000. However according to the web page: The Cygwin environment works under all modern versions of Windows except Windows CE and (currently) Windows XP, although we will probably fix this when XP is released commercially. I searched the mailing list but found nothing on failures associated with XP. Could some one point out the danger areas? Plz reply to me directly as I am not on the list. thanx Robert (Bob) L Sandefur Principal Geostatistician Pincock Allen & Holt (A Hart Crowser Company) International Minerals Consultants 274 Union Suite 200 Lakewood CO 80228 USA 303 914-4467 v 303 987-8907 f rls@pincock.com -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
