Where > might I find informatino on all this? With the latest version of Sergey's patches, "cs=" works fine (certainly Chris Faylor's port of vim is happy here now). I'm still having problems with signal handling (cygwin.dll ending up in a loop on ctrl+C for example) and with sockets (quite possibly a symptom of the signal problems). There's also a weird one related to ". ./foo" - sometimes (and I've not been able to tie down why and when), bash refuses to acknowledge the existence of "foo" when accessed thus. "sh ./foo" works fine and ". ./bar" is happy for some "bar"... As an example, I had to revert to the b18 distribution to run the Perl 5.004.01 Configure script - the scripts that Configure runs internally as source just wouldn't work with Sergey's patches (even when I tried them from the bash prompt). Yet ". ./Configure" /did/ work.
