I'm just bitchen to bitch. Problem is already solved - MS del works just fine - it's just "Kludgy" is all. I'll wait till someone gets around to it. ME?? Oh hey, I'm just a "Perl" guy!! The only thing I've written in c is "hello world". Plus I have NO time to learn c "and" trouble-shoot a nasty problem. Would probably take me 3 to six months - and I'm workin 70-80 hour weeks as it is. Am I grateful to those who "DO" know? SURE OF COURSE. So in case anyone wants to accuse me of being a feeloading good-for-nothing ingrate - I say this: THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU 1000 THANK YOU X 1000 There ... feel better?

Either that or come up with a patch to fix the problem. Sadly, free software doesn't mean "works perfectly or your problem gets fixed for free". Quite the contrary, it gives *you* the freedom to modify the source to fix problems. cgf -- 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/ "Empire Health Choice Inc." made the following annotations on 01/22/2003 11:07:41 AM ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] -- Access Manager: Attention!
