I think it was a waste of a lot of bandwidth. I guess you could say I would find the "lazy" way of downloading all necessary files from one directory more useful and efficient. Thank you all very much (all CS computers at BYU have cygwin, so I suppose you could call it "well used") ~Roger -- 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/
