Sergey's coolview is posted updates to the cygwin.dll. It will make the international keyboards would properly amoung other things. Sergey's modifications will be included in the next release. Your patch probably, I'm guessing, didn't work because your filesystems are still mounted as text!=binary. The mail archives abound with this subject. I know the www.search.com has indexed the gnu-win32 mail archives. - \\||// ---o0O0--Earnie--0O0o---- -earnie_boyd AT hotmail DOT com- ------ooo0O--O0ooo------- Check out these great gnu-win32 related sites: ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/gnu-win32/latest/ (ftp site) http://www.cygnus.com/pubs/gnupro/ (Comercial Page) http://www.cygnus.com/misc/gnu-win32/ (Project Page) http://www.cygnus.com/ml/gnu-win32 (Mail Archives) http://www.itribe.net/virtunix/winhelp-man-pages/ (HTML Man Pages) http://www.lexa.ru/sos (Sergey Okhapkin) ftp://www.lexa.ru/pub/domestic/sos/ (Sergey's ftp site) http://www.fu.is.saga-u.ac.jp/~colin/gcc.html (Colin Peters) http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/ (Mumit Khan) http://gnu-win32.paranoia.ru (Chuck Bogorad's ports) ftp://ftp.deninc.com/pub (Den Internet Services - US mirror and ports) http://www.bestweb.net/~aka/gnu-win32/ (GNU-Win32 Bash Configuration) http://rcw.home.ml.org/ (Rob Warner - software ports) http://www.wenet.net/~garbanzo/gnuwin32/ (more - software portals) http://www.wenet.net/~garbanzo/gnuwin32/rpm (Redhat Package Manager) >Date: Fri, 6 Feb 1998 10:27:10 +0100 (MET) >From: Francois Felix Ingrand >To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com >Subject: Newbie questions >Reply-To: felix AT laas DOT fr > > >I am new to this list and just started to use gnu-win32. > >I have a bunch of questions already....
