But as I replied to Corinna, the notion "a kitchen sink for all environments" is a boundless exaggeration. I am talking about no more than the four states a Windows machine can take. Open source software, right. I always thought that the basic meaning of an open source community was to help each other. And at last I am not demanding that everything should work the way I need it, but am kindly asking for help to reach my goal...if somebody helps me and I can find a working solution, I definitely will share it with every- body else and thereby contribute to the community. I don't claim my works perfect, I don't claim that everybody will need or even be interested in them. But somebody will always find something helpful. Is this a false or dumb or naive approach? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
