Thanks. Just to present an alternative point of view, I think interfering with the standard system accelerators is egregious and should be avoided, certainly in any default mode at any rate. IMO, Alt+TAB, Alt+Space, Alt+- (minus) and Ctrl-Alt-Del should be in the general category of things that are considered "NOT YOURS". Cygwin is defined as "a Linux-like environment for Windows"; to me, the "for Windows" part denotes living within the Windows environment and that means accepting certain minor differences from Linux. If you want a _perfect_ Linux emulation under Windows, install VMware! cheers, DaveK -- 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/
