Thanks for undertaking the effort to merge two excellent sets of software. -- Don Dwiggins "The truth will make you free, d DOT l DOT dwiggins AT computer DOT org but first it will make you miserable" -- Tom DeMarco -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
