What registry keys >can I use besides mount table? Currently the only documentation is in the source. Cygwin will scan the registry for CYGWIN environment variable options for a specific program. You have to create a new key: HKCU\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\Program Options or HKLM\Software\Cygnus Solutions\Cygwin\Program Options Each string name under this category is either the word "default" or is the full Windows path (including drive) of a program. The string value is a CYGWIN environment variable option string like "binmode or error_start:foo". So, if you have inetd installed in /usr/sbin and your root is c:\cygwin, you'd set up a key like this: HKLM Software Cygnus Solutions Cygwin Program Options c:\cygwin\usr\sbin\inetd.exe binmode notitle tty If you substitute the word "default" for the c:\cygwin\usr\sbin\inetd.exe then this will set the default cygwin setting for any program not specified explicitly. There is currently no tool available for setting these options. You have to use regedit directly to manipulate them. cgf -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
