Currently, the only way I see to work around this is to do as Bartlee Anderson suggested. Distribute the cygwin package or suggest how to obtain it, distribute your source code, provide a script for building your source with the cygwin package to create a working binary. Instructions on not distributing the binary would have to be given as that would infringe upon the copyrights of the individual packages. Now, does anyone see any infringements with this scenario? == - \\||// -------------------o0O0--Earnie--0O0o------------------- -- earnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com -- -- http://www.freeyellow.com/members5/gw32/index.html -- ----------------------ooo0O--O0ooo---------------------- PS: Newbie's, you should visit my page. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
