It's pretty self-explanatory from then > on... :-) You'd actually be suprised ;-P =20 We use cyg and the Gnu autotools for building our product on Win32 ... and I find myself walking devs through the effort of setting cyg up (and then later helping them set it up /properly/). =20 I know that setup.exe doesn't currently support batch operations ... how much effort would it be to add? Is it planned? Is there a better way to install it in a batch manner? =20 I took a look at the sources, and I could patch it in a few hours (probably) ... but I also guessed that I could shell script the same in less time, assuming that the it is as simple as unpacking the tar files and running the post install script(s). I've not solved it yet, only because of lazyness / overload at work Any suggestions would be handy ;) -Bruce --=-pQ868hYq3WzThq0K1CcN Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQA9i8zTGq1MJ2W/DBURAu9NAJ9zlVSY6ArrmEGmOf6YOzu5PIMUbQCfd/OF SdXUCPCjx1dfj+yKoEpSm30= =MtyQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-pQ868hYq3WzThq0K1CcN--
