Cygwin on NT vs XP To: cygwin@cygwin.com MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hi. I installed cygwin on NT and on XP. the NT installation works great. I compiled the same program using make on both (the program name is fid.exe). Now, on XP I go to the directory where the executable is and I have to type "./fid" to execute it. The program doesen't run well either (it is not reading a config file in the same directory) On NT, on the other hand, I go to the directory where the executable sits and i can call it just by typing "fid", and everything works perfectly. Any advice?... Thanks... Francisco. ===== Francisco. panchoi@netzero.net "Hoy puede ser un gran dia, plantéatelo así. Aprovecharlo, que pase de largo, depende en parte de tí."
