I see a src directory in which I have sourcce codes for cron and vim. I don't know whether I have to compile them to get them to work. Can I install the binary directly ?

I have CCed this response there. I am not familiar with cron, you should read the documentation that comes with it to see how to set it up. There should also be a lot in the mail list archive. I don't know why vim doesn't start for you. Please send the output of 'cygcheck -s' to the list so someone can see better what is happening. -- Mac :}) ** I normally forward private questions to the appropriate mail list. ** Ask Smarter: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.htm Give a hobbit a fish and he eats fish for a day.
