Unfortunately, I downloaded them into a file which had Other zip files. When I ran setup, it created the C:/cygwin file, but it had unzipped everything into it. I then deleted everything, copied the bison, flex and setup into their own directory and again ran setup. Now all I get is a message "nothing to install/update" If I proceed. A lot of empty directories are created, As well as some directories containing files of size zero. When I double-click the icon or the .bat file, it appears A window appears for a brief second, but then nothing. If I go to the add/remove option on the control panel, There is nothing that indicates cygwin, flex or bison. Is there some way I can determine what I actually have done, or some way to just sanitize and start all over? Thanks in advance. Kerreck -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
