This could cause crashes and core dumps. I hope this isn't the case. I might have inferred that in previous email but what I meant was that under B18 you could get really strange behavior if you unset CYGWIN_TTY. Under B19, you can unset it, but if your shell is using a tty for stdin/stdout/stderr, etc., then all of its subprocesses will as well. -- http://www.bbc.com/ cgf AT bbc DOT com "Strange how unreal VMS=>UNIX Solutions Boston Business Computing the real can be." - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
