I get exactly the same result when I put the dll and cygcheck in a directory on their own, remove all cygwin references from my PATH, and try the cygcheck from a cmd.exe shell. It isn't anything to do with . in the PATH, because I didn't have that. It must be some kind of variant on the detecting-the-same-file-twice-by-different-routes bug, but strangely enough it gives the exact same path for both of them: ".\cygwin1.dll", so I dunno how come it's finding it twice. cheers, DaveK -- Can't think of a witty .sigline today.... -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
