I also have a newlib-man 20020801. My /usr/include/sys/unistd.h contains a prototype for isatty. Am I missing something else? Igor P.S. The above are only the packages I've considered relevant. I can provide a full output of cygcheck if needed. On Fri, 23 Aug 2002, Dan Kegel wrote: > "man isatty" > > -----Original Message----- > From: J.
